Teaches children a valuable lesson as to what to do when you've seen your hat after it's gone missing.
2nd reread, owning it as a board book for bebe: still a valuable lesson for children (baby shower gift, ha!)

I had always seen this book around but never read it so I had to check it out...but what the hell? Such a random book.

Loved it, Jon Klassen is really a great artist (the illustrations were really beautiful, I like the style, something different from most books) and the story was really fun to read too, it had me laughing quite a few times. I will be sure to read the second book in this series.
Recommended to: Everyone! I am sure you want to know where the hat went.

This is a very adorable children's book with amazing illustrations and a great story. What I love is that this could be read to all ages as the sentences are not complex. For younger children it is a chance to learn vocabulary and follow the story whilst being comical, but for older children it is just an enjoyable older picture book. Due to the more basic sentences, when read aloud in the right way, can be funnt ans entertaining for them. Super versatile and a great book!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Stars
We follow a bear who has lost his hat and wants it back. He is very polite and patient as he asks all of the animals he sees if they have seen his hat. Just when all hope is lost, the bear remembers where he has seen his hat. The story ends with a mischievous twist that leaves children laughing.
It is no surprise to me that this book has a 4.8 star rating on Amazon. This is currently my favourite book to pull out to my preschool class when they seem to be in a bit of a silly mood. Great to read out loud and manages to keep my class of 22 fully engaged, they love that they can pick up when certain characters aren't being honest. Jon Klassen's writing is so deadpan and the illustrations are able to convey so much feeling despite the expressions not really changing at all. I also love the message of telling the truth, as well as helping each other out when we have a problem.
This book would be best suited for an adult to read out loud to children 3+.
