"A crackerjack read-aloud with a great finish." - School Library Journal. Stanley Birdbaum is very excited; after all, today is Crazy Hair Day at school! To celebrate this day, his mother helped him roll and wrap and dye his hair. She even dipped it and sprayed it and used not one or two, but plenty of rubberbands, all to make his hair look nothing less than perfect.
