A Beauty Place

Getting the word from school authorities that your child has head lice is an unfortunately common traumatic occurrence for parents. Copeland’s manual on how to handle the news comes with cartoon illustrations and a light-enough tone–chapter titles like “EEK! Your Child Has Lice” and “Your Lousy Home” capture how the news often makes parents feel–to cheer while it informs anxious moms and dads. It covers the map on head lice: where they come from, how to get rid of them, how to avoid them in the first place, and more. Copeland considers both commercial and homemade lice treatments and addresses common concerns and questions about the creatures, too. If forewarned is forearmed, this little book should be available to all parents of school-aged children.
