Review Quotes

"In this book a bear's at flies off his head, landing on a turtle. This prompts him to follow the hat all around trying to get it back. The image of bear swimming underwater is especially great." - Frankfort Community Public Library

"When Bear's rainbow hat gets carried away by a gust of wind he follows it as it travels from one animal to the next. It always seems to be just a little bit too far away to grab. I loved the simplicity of this book. The simple illustrations bring focus to the colorful hat but if you pay close attention you can see the emotions Bear goes through as he attempts to get his hat back and the confusion of the other animals while they have the silly hat. This will be a great read aloud allowing children to repeat the line, "where did the hat go?"" - Cooke County Library

"Cute book! Great for kids who are just learning to read. Kids can make predictions to what happens next and can stay engaged. Loved the illustrations." - NoShelfControl
