Description
Learn about scale and proportion with this humorous, whimsical story. Set in the old frontier town of Cowlick, two barbers compete to drive each other out of town. The key to barber Louie's success has been surprising his clients with haircuts resembling various objects, all cut to scale. For example, Louie can sculpt large objects (such as a horse or a stagecoach) out of a person's hair because he knows how to measure and calculate proportionately. His rival, barber Buzzsaw, is skilled at the opposite type of haircuts that make smaller objects appear bigger. Can the barbers learn to work together?
