Published 1996-05-01 · 24 pages

This book examines school culture, in the form of fellow students copying a hairstyle. Stephanie struggles to find a new way to wear her hair that is unique. She tries wearing her ponytail on top, on the side, and even in front, but everyone copies her. Finally, in desperation, she declares that tomorrow she will come to school with a shaved head so that she can finally look different from the copycats. Munsch illustrates this book with his own unique style and bright colors.
