“A crisp but subtle line.“ This quote I think describes the illustrations and as well as the book as a whole.

This book was so amazing to read. I thought the style of the artist and author fit in so well together. The way that the author describes the feeling of a haircut shows how important it is culturally and of course mentally. I really recommend this book for all ages.
pickCrown: An Ode to the Fresh Cut by Derrick Barnes. 2017. This book has some really unique illustrations because of how it was painted. The lines are subtle but also crisp at the same time. The author says that same line in the book which I think is telling of the book and its illustrations. Every page tells another great part about getting your hair cut and how wonderful it is.
How is everyone!? 😃
Here is my new hairstyle!

pickThis book is written as a poem following a boy and his haircut. This book won Caldecott Honor, Coretta Scott King author and illustrator awards, and Newbery Honor. I would read this story to my classroom, because it could be relatable to the students in my classroom and tells a great story about this young child's life.
This story is really remarkable. It simply tells the importance of the barber shop that this young boy feels. It allows readers to gain a better understanding of why this is an important place for many young African American boys.
pick10/10. This book tells a beautiful story and provides readers with anew perspective, for many. The illustrations are unique and add to the underlying idea.
“it‘s amazing what a tight fade,high/low/bald does for your confidence”
