About a little Indian girl who has a mooch--Hindi for mustache. I have never seen body hair be the topic of a picture book before but once again, I love it. After all, there are those who have their own mooches and yet feel as if they are not seen. This book provides windows and mirrors as well as being diverse! ( ) This book was AWESOME! Laxmi is worried when her friends points out she has a little moustache. Girls are not supposed to have mustaches, or hair all over their bodies! Laxmi’s mother does a great job at pointing out that everyone has hair in very odd places and it serves a purpose. Laxmi takes her mom’s lesson back to school with her and shares the love of a little hair with everyone. This book was so great. It takes a child feeling ashamed about themselves, and turning it around into an important lesson that makes everyone feel better. Laxmi's Mooch is a super cute children's book about a little girl learning to love her body hair. Laxmi feels insecure about her moustache and body hair after a classmate points it out, but when she gets home, her mother tells her that everyone has hair, and all the women in their family had "mooches." Laxmi is proud after this, and dreams of being a tiger with long, black whiskers. This is an adorable book with a POC main character that can be read to children of all ages to promote diversity and understanding among peers. It could relate to the Social Studies by talking about the Indian culture in the book. I identified with Laxmi because I have a mooch, too. I like that word, and how Laxmi's family made her proud of her mooch, that it is a cultural norm. A wonderful read-aloud for elementary classrooms to show how our differences are interesting and to affirm that our bodies are beautiful as they are. Includes Hindi words such as Titli (butterfly), Toh Kya? (So what?), Billi (cat), and Roti (flatbread). nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
