Un alegre libro infantil ilustrado de positividad corporal sobre el camino de una niña india-americana para aceptar su vello corporal y celebrar su herencia después de que se burlaran de ella por su bigote.

Laxmi nunca prestó mucha atención a los pequeños vellos sobre su labio. Pero un día, mientras jugaba a los animales de granja en el recreo, sus amigos le señalan que sus bigotes la harían el gato perfecto. Ella empieza a notar el vello en todo su cuerpo (en sus brazos, piernas e incluso entre sus cejas).

Con la ayuda de sus padres, Laxmi aprende que el pelo no está solo en la cabeza, sino que crece en todas partes, sin importar el género. Con un alentador texto de Shelly Anand e ilustraciones exuberantes y entrañables de Nabi H. Ali, El mooch de Laxmi es una jubilosa celebración de nuestros cuerpos y nuestro vello corporal, de cualquier forma que crezca.

Now available in Spanish, a joyful, body-positive picture book about a young Indian American girl's journey to accepting her body hair and celebrating her heritage after being teased about her mustache.

Laxmi never paid much attention to the tiny hairs above her lip. But one day while playing farm animals at recess, her friends point out that her whiskers would make her the perfect cat. She starts to notice body hair all over—on her arms, legs, and even between her eyebrows.

With her parents' help, Laxmi learns that hair isn't just for heads, but that it grows everywhere, regardless of gender. Featuring affirming text by Shelly Anand and exuberant, endearing illustrations by Nabi H. Ali, and translation by Rossy Evelin Lima, Laxmi's Mooch is a celebration of our bodies and our body hair, in whichever way they grow.
