A picture-book delight by a rising talent tells a cumulative
tale with a mischievous twist. The bear s hat is gone, and he wants it back. Patiently and
politely, he asks the animals he comes across, one by one,
whether they have seen it. Each animal says no, some more
elaborately than others. But just as the bear begins to
despond, a deer comes by and asks a simple question that
sparks the bear s memory and renews his search with a
vengeance. Told completely in dialogue, this delicious take
on the classic repetitive tale plays out in sly
illustrations laced with visual humor and winks at the
reader with a wry irreverence that will have kids of all
ages thrilled to be in on the joke.
