Sarah Jean's Uncle Jed was the only black barber in the county. He had a kind heart and a warm smile. And he had a dream.

With James Ransome's richly colored paintings...

With James Ransome's richly colored paintings brimming with life, this is a stirring story of dreams long deferred and finally realized.
