About this product

Product Information

History has never been hairier. Did you know that kings AND queens wore fake beards in ancient Egypt? Or that hair was used in medicine at the height of the Incan Empire? Or that Queen Elizabeth I had more than eighty wigs in various shades of red? Kathleen Krull and Peter Malone start at the dawn of history and bring us up to contemporary times, using incredible bits and bobs of hair fact and lore to show us just how much things have changed (and how they haven't!). This is a perfect way to introduce young readers to the idea of a longitudinal study. And it's also an irreverent and playful look at what funny fashion victims we humans have always been! Deserves a permanent spot on every booksehlf. (Get it?)
