BIG NEWS!!

Bea will be hitting the road again this fall with the CAP KID LIBRARY PROGRAM. Jeff Woytovich, founder of Children's Alopecia Project, has for the second year in a row included her and her story WHAT'S SILLY HAIR DAY WITH NO HAIR? in the stacks of books he donates to libraries across the country at each of the schools where he speaks. Raising awareness of children's alopecia is central to this program and WHAT'S SILLY HAIR DAY WITH NO HAIR? will help do exactly that.
