King Folliculus and Monsieur Malassez: The Case of the White Flakes

Something strange is falling inside the Hair Factory... and it looks like snow.

Nine-year-old Jake thought his adventures in the magical world beneath his own hair were over. But one night, a familiar voice calls him back: "Jake... we need you."

The Hair Factory is in chaos. Mysterious white flakes are drifting through the air, the workers can't stop scratching, and King Folliculus's crown has tipped to one side with worry. Someone — or something — is behind it all.

Armed with a shiny detective badge, a magnifying glass, and a brand-new notebook, Jake takes on his first official case. Together with the endearingly clumsy Inspector Scale and the brilliant Princess Vitaminia, he follows the clues: from the gleaming tanks of proud Captain Grease, past the weakened wall of Doctor Barrier, all the way to a mysterious, elegant little mushroom who insists he isn't making a mess — he's making art.

But this mystery has a twist no one expects: what if there's no villain at all?

King Folliculus and Monsieur Malassez is a warm, funny detective story that gently teaches children what dandruff really is and why it appears — no scary words, no lectures, just a wonderfully imaginative adventure. Written by a real hair doctor, this story turns the science of the scalp into a world of kings, inspectors, and artists, where the solution isn't about defeating an enemy... but about restoring balance.

Perfect for:

Children ages 5–9 (read-aloud) and confident young readers Kids curious about how their bodies work Parents looking for screen-free bedtime stories with real substance Little detectives who love solving mysteries Join Jake on a case unlike any other — because sometimes the biggest mysteries are hiding right under your hair.

Book 2 in The Hair Factory series. Can be read as a standalone adventure.
