Summary: A little
Cuban girl named Dalia woke up with extremely tall thick hair. She pretended to
be a tree and gave her mother opportunities to guess what tree she was. Time
and time again her mother guessed wrong so Dalia went off into different
environments to add on to her hair tree. Eventually revealing the true nature
of it at the end.
Review: This is
such a cute story that is filled with a lot of culture not only through
writing, but there the depiction of the illustrations. I love the fact that the
book is in both English and Spanish and how it shows a mother’s support in the
decisions the main character, Dalia, has when it came to how she wanted her
hair. It is a very beautiful mother and daughter story.
