Here's a light way to talk to children about that old nuisance head lice. Rhyming verses describe how one little girl gets head lice and how she and her parents get rid of them. Kids will enjoy the rollicking cartoon "cooties" playing hide-and-seek and having a party in the girl's hair until they are sent packing. Notes on each page provide detailed, factual information about head lice.

Starred review from March 18, 2002
This book aims to remove the stigma from a pesky elementary-school plague, attacking the subject with a combination of factual prose and jangly couplets. Cartoons, on the garish side, show the lice having a barbecue in some unfortunate child's hair. Ages 4-10.
