Description

A 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 winks at the audience with a wry irreverence that will have kids of all ages thrilled to be in on the joke.

      • content: The I WANT MY HAT BACK read-along and CD is a satisfying experience worthy of repeated listening. One determined bear travels through his neighborhood querying friends as to the whereabouts of his lost red hat. The original and genuine response of each creature is a credit to the multiple narrators. Tone, speed, and inflection are used to provide distinctive personalities for the turtle, frog, snake, and rabbit. The accompanying orchestration complements the narration and provides both leisurely interludes as the bear seeks out his friends and extended time for the listener to expand on the story by examining the illustrations. An interview with Jon Klassen completes the production. A.R. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award (c) AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine

        Starred review from July 4, 2011
        In his first outing as an author, Klassen's (Cats' Night Out) words and artwork are deliberately understated, with delectable results. Digitally manipulated ink paintings show a slow-witted bear asking half a dozen forest animals if they've seen his hat. Unadorned lines of type, printed without quotation marks or attributions, parallel the sparse lines Klassen uses for the forest's greenery. Most of the answers the bear gets are no help ("What's a hat?" one animal asks), but the rabbit's answer arouses suspicion: "I haven't seen any hats anywhere. I would not steal a hat. Don't ask me any more questions." In a classic double-take, the bear doesn't notice the hat on the rabbit's head until several pages on: "I have seen my hat," he realizes, wide-eyed. Readers with delicate sensibilities may object to the implied conclusion ("I would not eat a rabbit," the bear says stoutly, his hat back on his head, the forest floor showing signs of a scuffle), but there is no objecting to Klassen's skillful characterizations; though they're simply drawn and have little to say, each animal emerges fully realized. A noteworthy
        debut. Ages 4–8.
