## Description

Hilarious bestselling picture book. Bear's quest for lost hat is a charming, original story for all ages. "The funniest book ever written" - Guardian.

Review: Kept laughing .. we can all do with that! - Such a funny book .. get it to amuse your children and yourself!
Review: Great design, amazing to read out loud, funny and yet deep. - Ha! this is a really quirky book. Funny, with big pictures, animals, and a open odd ending... It's already a favorite of ours for bedtime, and nap time, and reading time and play time: you got, it's always requested. The design is really nice and interesting, and the story can be a start for a deep conversation with children.. A bear has lost his hat, and goes searching for it. (if you want to know the end, read the last line of this review)* This is the first book of the Klassen "Hat" trilogy ( This Is Not My Hat - We Found a Hat ), and in my opinion, this is the best one. Klassen style is really lovely: he uses simple lines, and the characters aren't over design, yet it's so catching and unique. There are pages with just 2 animals watching at each others, without text, and they're super funny. Reading it out loud is so easy: there are repetitions, there are various characters so you can make different voices, there are no over stressed or pompous words. You can even read it with a dim light 'cause the text is quite big (I'd say at least a 26/28 font) If your child like some specific animals, here we have: bear, fox, frog, moose, turtle, rabbit, squirrel, snake and what I believe being and armadillo. *(spoiler: the rabbit stole the hat, and he's getting eaten for this).
