I Love My Hair! ($8, originally $9) follows the story of Keyana and her hair. Every night, her mother detangles and braids her hair. When the comb hurts or pulls her hair, her mother reminds her that her hair is beautiful because it can do many things. "I can spin your hair into fine, soft yarn just like our grandmothers did at the spinning wheel," she said. "Or I can part your hair into straight lines and plant rows of braids across your scalp, the way we plant seeds in our garden." These teachings help Keyana love and appreciate her hair.
