| 1 | Beach Hair | 2024 | Ashley Woodfolk | Buy |
Beach Hair (2024) is Ashley Woodfolk’s first picture book. It celebrates the many ways Black children wear their hair at the beach, from braids to twists to afros. The book is a joyful look at a simple summer day.
It is a departure from Woodfolk’s usual young adult work, aimed at a much younger audience. The focus on hair as a form of self-expression fits with themes she explores in her older-reader books, just presented for the youngest readers.
