Max is going for a haircut – but Wendy’s Hairdressing Salon is too bright and noisy. He doesn’t like the cold water spray, the too-tight cloth round his shoulders or the spiky hair clips.

It’s all just too much for Max and he shouts, “STOP!” But Wendy has a wonderful idea. Maybe a cat, a soft cushion and some bubbles could make a haircut fun after all?

This beautiful, sensitively told story is perfect for any child anxious about having their hair cut.
