When "Zuri" wakes up in the morning and removes her night cap, her hair - well it's big, very very big! She has faith though that her mum will come and groom it back into stylish and gorgeous shape. Ha! Not today. It's dad who has to sort things out - and he'd rather face Mike Tyson in a boxing ring ... than try to get to grips with this particular challenge! With her throwing a strop and dad well and truly out of his depth - we have a conundrum! Maybe one of mum's training videos might prove useful? Let's see! I'm not sure hairdressers around the world will appreciate what follows but it is quite a nicely, simply, animated story that raises a smile at the end.
