By blending historical details with 'amusing anecdotes that put flesh and blood on dry literary bones,' best-selling kids author Kathleen Krull 'knows exactly how to captivate her audience' (Publishers Weekly). In this playful look at hair, Krull draws upon centuries of hairy history-including the fake beards of Egyptian queens, the hair-filled medicine of the Incas, and the diverse wigs of Queen Elizabeth I-to show just how hair-brained people can be.
