We Found a Hat

Description

"Picture-book lovers will delight in We Found a Hat ... it's short on words but long on meaning" GuardianHold on to your hats! From the Kate Greenaway-winning creator of I Want My Hat Back and This Is Not My Hat comes the much-anticipated conclusion to the celebrated hat trilogy. Two turtles have found a hat. The hat looks good on both of them. But there are two turtles. And there is only one hat... Evoking hilarity and sympathy, the shifting eyes tell the tale in this perfectly paced story in three parts, highlighting Jon Klassen's visual comedy, deceptive simplicity and deliciously deadpan humour.

Jon Klassen is the author-illustrator of I Want My Hat Back and This Is Not My Hat, the only book to ever win both the Kate Greenaway and Caldecott Medal. He also illustrated Extra Yarn and the Caldecott Honor book Sam and Dave Dig a Hole, both written by Mac Barnett, as well as Ted Kooser's House Held Up By Trees. Before making picture books, he served as an illustrator on the animated feature film, Coraline. Originally from Niagara Falls, Canada, Jon now lives in Los Angeles, California with his wife.

"A different but wholly satisfying and thought provoking ending to an outstanding collection of books. Not to be missed." * The School Librarian * The sustained hilarity and depth of emotional dilemma Jon Klassen manages to conjure from this simple scenario is astonishing. * Teach Primary * Mesmerising and full of heart, this is a picture book about self-confidence and love, and a radiant celebration of individuality. * Teach Primary *
