Description
Frizzy is a heartwarming graphic novel about Marlene, a young girl whose greatest enemy is her hair salon. She struggles to accept herself, with frizzy curls that don't seem pretty enough.
Marlene loves books, spending time with her cool Tía Ruby and best friend Camila. But according to her mother, Paola, she needs to focus on school and "growing up", which means straightening her hair every weekend for a more presentable look. Marlene hates the salon and doesn't understand why her curls aren't considered pretty.
With the help of Camila and Tia Ruby, Marlene starts a journey to learn to appreciate and proudly wear her curly hair. A story about self-acceptance and embracing individuality, Frizzy is also available in Spanish under the title Rizos.
