A little girl wakes up with wild bedhead hair and finds her parents do too. Her mom says they all have beach hair. And her dad says they might as well go to the beach. At the beach, they find all kinds of people with all kinds of hair. The family has a wonderful time at the beach. No feels like they have to hide their hair under a hat.

A sweet story about embracing who you are just the way you are. The illustrations are bright happy and energetic with a lot of movement. The mother and daughter are black, the father is white.
