Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals is a role-playing video game developed by Neverland and published by Square Enix. It is a remake of the original Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals, which was released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1995. The remake was released for the Nintendo DS in 2010. The game follows a young adventurer named Maxim who embarks on a quest to save the world from the Sinistrals, a group of powerful beings who threaten to destroy humanity. Along the way, Maxim is joined by a group of companions who each possess unique abilities and skills. The gameplay of Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals combines traditional turn-based combat with puzzle-solving and exploration.
Written by musician VV Brown, this empowering picture book celebrates the magic of afro-textured hair. The beautiful illustrations show black women with natural hair following their dreams and smashing their goals. We see a scientist, a mountaineer, a mother, a drummer, a botanist, a weightlifter, a ballerina and even a deep sea diver! The message is loud and clear – Lily’s future is in her hands and she can be anything she wants to be. All she has to do is believe in herself.
There are, already, a few picture books celebrating Black hair, but this latest beautifully finished debut from musician VV Brown adds a fun, fresh, and magical element to everyday haircare stories. I enjoyed the spread where Lily imagines various careers including the traditionally male-dominated fields of weightlifting, flying planes, and science.
The gameplay of Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals combines traditional turn-based combat with puzzle-solving and exploration. Players control a party of characters and engage in battles with enemies, using a variety of weapons, magic spells, and special abilities. One notable feature of the game is the inclusion of the Ancient Cave, a dungeon-like area that players can explore to obtain rare items and experience points.
Lily and the Magic Comb
by VV Brown & Kate Hazell
It’s Lily’s birthday and her Mum has given her a beautifully wrapped box with a resplendent yellow bow. What could be inside? As she unties the ribbon and tears the paper Lily wriggles with excitement. She knows Mum’s present will be very special – and she’s right!
Inside the box is a sparkling wide-toothed comb decorated with pink stars. As she stares at it in wonder her Mum explains that this is not just any old comb. This is Lily’s special comb and it is filled with history and magic. Using it will transport her anywhere her imagination wants to take her!
As Lily pulls the teeth of the comb through her abundant curls she wiggles her nose to activate the magic and whooosh! She finds herself flying through space and time, taking tea with an astronaut, dancing on the rings of saturn and eating cake with aliens.
Eventually she slides down a rainbow and back in to bed, clutching her wonderful gift tightly in her hand. As she closes her eyes and drifts off to sleep her mother gently whispers in her ear, letting her know that her beautiful curls are a crown which she should cherish.

Ivy really enjoyed reading this one. Her best friend has afro hair so the story opened up a wider conversation for us, which I am always very grateful for. (It also had an unexpected side effect. Even though Ivy naturally has very straight, fine hair she hates having it combed through when it’s wet. After reading this story we pretended her comb was magic and she didn’t wriggle one bit!)
