TAKE THE STING AND STIGMA OUT OF THE OUSTING OF NITS!
Pedi and Osis Nit were two head lice. They were living in someone’s hair and having a lovely time exploring their environment. They managed to swing into action in the cleanest hair in the class and could hardly believe their luck.
Outbreaks of Pediculosis (nits) are common in schools and require eradication treatment for each individual affected. The process can be arduous and annoying for school age children. It requires not only ridding the hair of the blood sucking pests but careful removal of every tiny egg!
The aim of this colourful book is to lighten up while clearing out!

I think this book is great teaching about nits to our children. The books explains in detail about nits and the process of removing the nits and the eggs. I saw this at the daughters school new books display and was very impressed with the book.
this is a fantastic book and i agree that it should be in all acholls! It explains in an understandable way about nits and how they spead, without any of the stigma that is assosiated with nits, it makes the topic much more approachable.
I have seen this book being displayed at my child’s school library. This book defenity teaches children about nits and taking care of our hair. Very good book
It is a story suitable for children to read and understand what head lice are and how they live in hair and transfer to others hair. This story also helps to dismiss the stigma associated with head lice and educate children and parents on the processes involved in getting rid of the head lice and keeping them at bay.
My daughter told me at the start of the year the teacher read this book to the class as some children had nits. A great book to be used as a teaching resource.
