Award-winning poet and author Joseph Coelho presents a lyrical and emotional reflection on the effect of separation from a parent on a child.

Once a month, Dad takes his son to the barbers, come rain or shine. But when Dad disappears, this little boy's hair grows big, ginormous, out of control – and so do his feelings.

A touching and melodic story of family separation from a child's perspective from the author/illustrator duo who brought us the Amnesty International recommended picture book Luna Loves Library Day.

• Instantly relateable for any parent or child going through a separation.
• Featuring a 6pp gatefold - see the child's hair grow and grow as it opens out! 
• Joe Coelho won the CLPE Children’s Poetry Award with his first collection Werewolf Club Rules.
