As seen on Amazon!:
Bad Hair Does Not Exist! (Pelo Malo No Existe!) is a book with an anti-bullying message that reinforces respect for individualism. Hispanic and Black children are exposed to the divisive and bullying term, “bad hair,” within their own communities. The term "bad hair" or pelo malo is used to describe hair that is usually of curlier texture or of a coarse texture and thick density. This is irresponsible and often contributes to a child’s low self-esteem, dividing both communities and families. The book’s purpose is to empower all children by giving them alternate terms to describe their hair and teaching them the importance of respecting one another’s differences.
