Great book!!! Surprising ending and very heartwarming. A great book to teach children about kindness and giving, when having such gifts for herself.
A beautifully illustrated story with silly giggle worthy rhymes that guides us right to a sweet lesson about giving and offers an opportunity to talk about hair donation. This was a very fun book with a ton of details in all of the illustrations.
The story is heartwarming, but the greatest advantage of this book is its beautiful pictures. Overall, it is a very nice book and recommended.
I LOVE the moral of this story!! Super cute and the illustrations are fabulous!!
This was a beautifully illustrated children’s book with a fun storyline that had a really important message for children about valuing what’s on the inside rather than the outside, and doing your best to help other people. Great gift for young children
The book Tousled is special indeed! The message about taking pride in your hair is well received. What is more wonderful is the message of caring for and about others by doing something meaningful. I enjoyed reading this book and loved the special message.
The rhymes took a bit of re-reading on the first go around to try to get the cadence right, but overall the book was super cute and endearing to read with my daughter who also has a wild mane of hair! We'll pull this one out over and over to read at night.
The writing is engaging and easy to follow, perfect for young readers or for a shared storytime with parents and caregivers. Sunny’s lively personality shines through the pages, and the book’s positive message will resonate with children and adults alike.
I like how the princess was admired for her beautiful hair and even more admired for donating her tress to sick kids. And gorgeous illustration. Great book.

This story is beautifully completed and carries an important message. The rhyming is spot on, and the message is conveyed clearly, along with the beautiful illustrations on each page.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Good illustrations to go along with the story and a great lesson! I would recommend this book to anyone with a daughter or son between 3-12.
A delightful twist on classic fairy tales! Tousled breathes new life into familiar stories by reimagining them with fresh perspectives and unexpected turns. The author's creative storytelling and vivid descriptions make it an engaging read from start to finish. While some tales felt a bit rushed, the overall collection is charming and thought-provoking. A must-read for fans of modern fairy tale adaptations!
Loved this lively little book about a little girl called Sunny, who's mane of unruly hair gets her in all sorts of trouble!. Engaging, bouncy tale. Witty animation and inspiring story. Lovely idea to turn the story on it's head, when Sunny realises not every child is as lucky as her. Some are even bald through illness. So she decides to donate her mane to be made into wigs. Inspiring heartfelt story. Would highly recommend. Carol McAllister

My little girl loved this story. What a lovely message and the illustrations in the book are beautiful. Highly recommend
This children's book about a young girls messy and seemingly unmanageable hair, had a twist I wasn't expecting at the end. I thought it was sweet, and the perfect ending for such a story about really long hair.
This book really surprised me in the best way. It’s a fun story about a lively girl with wild blonde hair who slowly learns an important lesson about sharing. What got me was how it takes a simple idea like hair and turns it into something meaningful. I found the message about giving and appreciating what we have super sweet, and the illustrations were just perfect. The way Sunny realizes she can help others with her gift made the whole thing even more touching. Definitely worth picking up if you’re looking for a quick, feel-good read!
