“A wonderfully astonishing story, the kind of book that makes both children and adults laugh. Delightfully wicked!” — New York Times
A brilliant picture book by one of the world’s leading storytellers, Jon Klassen.
Bear’s hat is missing, and he wants it back. With great patience and polite determination, he asks one animal after another whether they have seen it. Everyone says no - some at greater length than others. Just as Bear is about to give up, a deer asks him a question that suddenly makes him think… because he has seen his hat after all.
Canadian illustrator Jon Klassen is regarded as one of the great contemporary picture-book creators, and his debut masterpiece I Want My Hat Back has received numerous international awards. It has been translated into more than twenty languages and sold over one million copies worldwide. The Swedish edition is translated by poet Lotta Olsson.
Petra’s comment:I have loved Klassen for many years and my kids have grown up with his beautiful and clever books. Look at the eyes of the characters, so much fun.
