At school, Selina is ridiculed as "Mophead" for her big, frizzy hair. She ties it away any which way to try to be like the other kids. But at one point (Sam Hunt plays a role), she decides to embrace her difference, let her hair our, be wild. We follow what that does - PhD, the Queen, Obama, etc - until she becomes poet laureate and her tokotoko, her stick, has a fue, a Samoan fly whisk, on the end. It looks like a mop! This is an inspirational book, illustrated by the author - NZ's bestselling poet laureate - and aimed at young readers and adults that tells a story about a Pasifika woman embracing her uniquness.
