This book was AWESOME! Laxmi is worried when her friends points out she has a little moustache. Girls are not supposed to have mustaches, or hair all over their bodies! Laxmi’s mother does a great job at pointing out that everyone has hair in very odd places and it serves a purpose. Laxmi takes her mom’s lesson back to school with her and shares the love of a little hair with everyone. This book was so great. It takes a child feeling ashamed about themselves, and turning it around into an important lesson that makes everyone feel better.
