Klassen, Jon. I Want My Hat Back, 40 pgs. Candlewick, 2011. $15.99. Inside cover: “A bear has lost his hat. What if he never sees it again? WAIT! He has seen his hat…” This is a unique tale told completely in verse. The illustrations are fantastic. The words are simple. There is a great twist at the end of the book, that might be offensive to some parents, but I think most little children will escape it’s meaning, and older children will find it humorous. It is definitely not your typical ending for a children’s book. Before purchasing, you might want to read it first. EL (K-3). ADVISABLE. Reviewer: SL.
