The Red Jacket
The Red Jacket | Bob Holt
2 posts | 2 read
Perfect for fans of Jory John and Pete Oswald's The Bad Seed and Jon Klassen's I Want My Hat Back, The Red Jacket is a hilarious debut! Bob loves his red jacket. The red jacket makes him feel swanky cool. The red jacket makes other seagulls notice him and even speak to him. But when a wave washes it away, will Bob lose his cool and his newfound friends, too? Bob Holt's spare text and humorous artwork come together perfectly in this charmingly humorous tale about a seagull who learns a lesson or two about style, "fitting in," and confidence.

After reading the Red Jacket, I let the kids design their own. They needed to include infinite pockets and this kid chose kittens. I need a kitten now.

Bob is lifted out of his funk by a red jacket with a pocket full of fries. Nominated for the 2025 #WCCPBA, my first idea would be to have the kids make friend fries they can carry in their pockets.
