Join Sheep in a woolly adventure to the Baa Baa Shop for a first haircut with a story that eases common fears with fun, whimsical artwork.

Sheep is way overdue for his first haircut—his wool flops in his eyes and it's too fluffy on top. But like many kids who need a haircut, Sheep is apprehensive. Grandpa insists he tags along to the Baa Baa Shop where he discovers cool new styles, from an undercut to a woolly fade to free form twists. Still, Sheep isn't so sure. He relaxes a little when his head is shampooed. Then it's time for the shave brushes, the combs, the picks, and the sheers. Finally, Grandpa and Sheep look in the mirror and discover their BAAA-EWE-TIFUL new styles.

The afternoon at the Baa Baa Shop shows how bravery, an adventure with a grandparent, and a new haircut can help any child feel strong and confident. The fun, whimsical illustrations by Pei Pei bring the story to life with creative hairstyles. As a bonus, readers can mark their own milestone with a First Haircut Certificate!
