I was really disappointed when my grand-daughter told me she found her soon to be step sister 'extraordinary' because she was good at doing hair! I am trying to find (without much luck) a story of a modern day heroine, a sort of more recent Grace Darling. Really hoping I am not coming across as dismissive to would be hairdressers, but I really would like my grand-daughter to admire and aspire to more than the ability to operate a hair brush blush if anyone can give me some ideas I'd be really grateful.

I've just remembered a book for younger children we used in playgroup and early years....The Paper Bag Princess.....excellent.
