Need a Trim, Jim

(1999)
A Picture Book by

 
 
Oh my! Jim is in desperate need of a trim. With his wild and wacky hair all over the place he misses balls, walks into walls and, well, you cannot imagine what happens to him when he tries to eat spaghetti. But all this mayhem could be brought to an abrupt halt if only Jim would succumb to the power of the scissors. But won't it hurt?

In Need a Trim, Jim Kay Umansky and Margaret Chamberlain get a firm grip on a childhood fear--that first all important trip to the hairdresser--with raucous illustrations that see the hapless Jim falling, bumping, tripping and messing all over the place because of his reluctance to get his hair cut.

Rip-roaring rhyme that perfectly captures the mood of the bright and bold illustrations, Need a Trim,Jim is a fantastic book to share with a child who is about to approach the hairdresser's chair for the very first time, but makes great reading for any child who simply loves a great story. Age 3 and over. --Susan Harrison
