Good book submitted by rea2mill on July 28, 2022, 10:37pm This is a really nice, body positive book about body hair. I really loved that it not only helps kids see body hair as normal, but also shows Lakshmi very gently helping her classmates understand that it’s normal. Bullying can be such a scary thing to deal with, and it’s nice to have an example of a calm non confrontational way it can be approached.
