J.D. en la expo de estilistas (J.D. and the Hair Show Showdown Spanish Edition)

Author J. Dillard
Illustrated by Akeem S. Roberts
Translated by Omayra Ortiz
J.D. —el niño barbero de ocho años— lleva su talento a una expo de estilistas en Atlanta en el tercer libro de esta serie para niños, ahora disponible en español.

¡J.D. el niño barbero es el barbero más joven invitado a participar en la Expo de estilistas Beauty Brothers en Atlanta! J.D. recibe tratamiento VIP: viaja por primera vez en avión, lo transportan en limusina y recibe regalos de los patrocinadores. En la expo hay clases para tomar, muestras de productos para probar y están presentes algunos de los influencers de la industria del pelo favoritos de J.D.. Pero lo que más emociona a J.D. es tomarse una foto con Li’l Eazy Breezy, la sensación del rap de once años, ¡y esto es más difícil de lo que parece! El mundo de la barbería y de la belleza es mucho más grande de lo que J.D. había imaginado, y él está listo para llegar al siguiente nivel.

Eight-year-old kid barber J.D. takes his talent to an Atlanta hair show in this third book in the J.D. the Kid Barber series.

At only eight years old, J.D. the Kid Barber is the youngest barber to be invited to the Beauty Brothers Hair Expo in Atlanta! J.D. gets the VIP treatment—he takes his first flight, rides in a limo for the first time, and gets gifts from the show’s sponsors. At the show, there are hair classes to take, product samples to try, and some of J.D.’s favorite hair influencers to meet. But what J.D. is most excited about is snapping a pic with eleven-year-old rap sensation Li’l Eazy Breezy, which is harder than it sounds! The world of hair and beauty is so much bigger than J.D. could’ve imagined, and he’s ready to step up his game.
