The long and the short of it a tale about hair

Follows the stories of Isabel and Emma, two girls with "hair problems." One wants her hair to be longer; the other has lost her hair because of cancer treatment and would just like it back. Each girl's experience leads her to a new understanding: for one girl, the realization that she can help someone through giving her hair away; for the other girl, the emotion of losing her hair while finding that others want to help.
