Stanley Birdbaum is thrilled for Crazy Hair Day, his hair a masterpiece of creativity. But disaster strikes when he discovers it's actually School Picture Day.

Join Stanley on a journey of confusion, compassion, and unexpected solutions.
From the publisher
“A crackerjack read-aloud with a great finish. . . . This delightful tale of confusion and compassion is just the ticket to defuse potential teasing.” – School Library Journal Stanley Birdbaum couldn’t be more excited. He has rolled and wrapped and dyed his hair. He has dipped it and sprayed it and made it, well, perfect. He is ready to celebrate Crazy Hair Day at school. But when Stanley saunters up to the classroom, he learns, to his horror, that Crazy Hair Day is . . . next week. To make matters worse, today is School Picture Day, and everyone is expected to line up for the class photo! What’s Stanley to do?
