Description

WINNER of the 2022 Klaus Flugge Prize - Celebrating outstanding newcomers to picture book illustration.

Pierre's New Hair follows Pierre and his friends as they decide to enter a roller skating competition. They put in hours of practice, training, hair styling, and costume planning. But what will happen when Pierre can't get the perfect quiff and is running late? Will he make it to the competition on time? And will he still have the confidence to skate with his friends?

Pierre is a bear who loves hair and roller-skating. But can his moves and his quiff impress his favourite roller disco team, the Poodle Squad? The judges loved the anarchy and edge Joseph Namara Hollis brings to his story, and his clever use of the pages and layout. Despite the absurdity, he builds a believable world, the details adding up into something real.
