J.D. and the Family Business (J. D. the Kid Barber, Bk. 2)

Eight-year-old kid barber J.D. joins forces with his sister, who has beauty shop dreams, in this hilarious illustrated chapter book series.

J.D. is a barber battle champion. He's graduated from home haircuts to having a regular chair at the neighborhood shop, Hart and Son, and he's making enough money to keep his candy jar stocked and his comic book collection growing. And yet, J.D. knows it's time for his next challenge. He doesn't just want to be the best barber in Meridian, Mississippi—he wants to be the best barber in the state . . . and maybe the country! When his older sister, Vanessa, starts to gain a following online for her hair tutorials, the kids decide that to truly level up, they must join forces. How do two siblings with big personalities, big ambitions, and competitive spirits work together (or not) to take over the hair world?

From the hilarious and creative mind of J. Dillard, an entrepreneur, public speaker, and personal barber, comes the second book in a chapter book series with characters that are easy to fall for and nearly impossible to forget. Akeem S. Roberts's lively illustrations make this series a must-buy for reluctant readers.
