Bookroo's summary
Sudan's hair is wild, enchanted, and full of surprises, much like his mother's. It giggles, roars, and even sprouts wings, drawing both ridicule and fear from others. But when Sudan stumbles upon a magical place, he finds the freedom to embrace his unique gift. Will this enchanted realm help him accept himself, or will it reveal even more mysteries about his extraordinary hair?
From the publisher
Sudan has hair just like his mother - wild and enchanted. It giggles when he talks and roars when he walks, and often sprouts wings. Some people tease him and others are afraid of him. One day he discovers an enchanted place where he can be himself.
