Ok , I have vintage hats , seldom wear anymore but haven‘t got rid of them. No more buying hats! Except this one , today!😂

I made this hat from Knitting The National Parks for hubby for Christmas, it is the Mesa Verde pattern.

“the animals had taken them and each one was thinking, ‘Now I am wearing a magnificent hat!”

I would use this in my classroom to talk about foreshadowing, because on each page there are two windows which show other actions occurring throughout the story that can help you predict what‘s going to happen.

The Hat by Jan Brett is s story about a hedgehog named Hedgy who gets a winter hat that few away in a winter storm stuck on his pack. All the other animals passed him one at a time and either laughed or said nothing hedgy was starting to feel embarrassed when all the animals ran past him with winter clothes on.

“No. Why are you asking me. I haven't seen it. I haven't seen any hats anywhere. I would not steal a hat. Don't ask me any more questions.”

This is an excellent book to read to children as you can review the bear is emotions. There are pages without words that leave it up for interpretation for the students. The ending of the story is left up for interpretation as well. Whether he sat on the rabbit, ate the rabbit, or the rabbit walked away.

“I Want My Hat Back” was published in 2011. This book is about a main character who is a bear, going around asking other animals if they have seen his hat. Every animal replies they have not seen his hat; however, it was on the rabbits head as he asked the rabbit. Once he still cannot find his hat he gets upset.
