The Hat
The Hat | Jan Brett
7 posts | 14 read | 1 to read
A delightfully original companion book to Jan Brett's bestseller The Mitten. When Lisa's woolen stocking flies off the clothesline, Hedgie finds it and pokes his nose in. He tries to pull it out, but the stocking gets stuck on his prickles -- and the fun begins. A mother hen comes by, then a noisy goose, a talkative barn cat, a playful farm dog, a mama pig and her piglets, and a pony. They all laugh at Hedgie, especially when he pretends he's wearing a new hat. But in the end, it is clever Hedgie who has the last laugh. And where is Lisa when all of this is going on? She's in Jan Brett's signature borders, getting ready for winter, until she realizes her stocking is missing and she enters the story to look for it. Luminous paintings of a Scandinavian farm and the forest around it are bathed in northern light, as the snow begins to fall and the adventure unfolds. From the Hardcover edition.

#schoolspirit it's crazy hat/hair day so I put a book on my head. I hope it lasts. It's a Latin dictionary.

wanderinglynn Super fun! 😀 2y
mandarchy @luliaC and @wanderinglynn It was fun - I am just glad it didn't give me a headache. Somewhere in this house is a smaller book, but I couldn't find it. 2y

Looks like my daughter claimed this for herself! Probably about 15 years ago at least!

Librarian at checkout: you must homeschool.

Just because we checked out 32 books, half non-fiction, and ranging from American Girls to classic stories to mythology of Asia and Greece and birds? Nah...

This will last us less than two weeks, for the record.

Alfoster 👍👏👏👏👏! 5y
ravenlee Update: in 45 minutes the kid has read 2/3 of the books, several more than once. 5y
Lauram Love this! 5y
