# Blue Bison Needs a Haircut - Hardcover

by **Scott Rothman** (Author), **Pete Oswald** (Illustrator)

**Blue Bison tries his best to be patient in this humorous picture book from the #1 _New York Times_ bestselling illustrator Pete Oswald.**

Blue Bison prides himself on always looking clean and neat. But he has a growing problem--his hair. With the barber shops and just about everywhere else closed, all Blue Bison can do is ram his ramming rock in frustration. Meanwhile, his hair keeps growing.

His dad, Brown Bison, encourages him to be patient and wait, and his mom, Burgundy Bison, tries to explain that sometimes you want something that you really don't need. But all Blue Bison can do is whine and wallow. Could little sister Bubblegum Bison have the solution?

A wildly hilarious story with a subtle message that waiting is hard but sometimes is necessary.
