Director Matthew A Cherry sat down with NowThis News to talk about his children’s book Hair Love. The book puts Black dads and their babies in a positive light showing Black dads combing hair, and proving to people that Black dads matter. This family friendly book would be a superb addition to any kid’s bookshelf and brings a new type of tale to kids book stories. Children’s literature has never seen a book like this. Listen to Hair Love read aloud and you’ll know it’s one of the more original kids books to read. Cherry raised money for a Hair Love animated short film on Kickstarter.
