Mal ehrlich: Welches Kind geht schon gerne zum Friseur? Der kleine Berthold jedenfalls würde sich niemals freiwillig die Haare schneiden lassen. Bis ihn seine Mutter zum "Friseur am Zoo" mitnimmt. Berthold staunt nicht schlecht: Statt auf Stühlen sitzen die Kunden auf lebenden Ponys und Eseln, sogar einen kleinen Elefanten entdeckt der Junge. Für Berthold wird das grunzende Schwein in der Ecke frei - und was passiert, als er sich darauf setzt, ist wirklich haarsträubend! Sechzehn kurzweilige Geschichten.
Juggling soccer, school, friends and family leaves John with little time for anything else. But one day at the local community center, following the sound of drums, he stumbles into an Indigenous dance class. Before he knows what's happening, John finds himself stumbling through beginner classes with a bunch of little girls, skipping soccer practice and letting his other responsibilities slide. When he attends a pow wow and witnesses a powerful performance, he realizes that he wants to be a dancer more than anything. But the nearest class for boys is at the Native Cultural Center in the city, and he still hasn't told his family or friends about his new passion. If he wants to dance, he will have to stop hiding. Between the mocking of his teammates and the hostility of the boys in his dance class, John must find a way to balance and embrace both the Irish and Cree sides of his heritage.
