Description
When a bear's hat goes missing, he searches the whole forest over... only to finally remember where he last saw it.
Review
We had a slow day at work, and this was on the top of the bin. It reads fast, and I liked the ending. The artwork's simple, but it gets the idea across, and the ending
makes a memorable lesson in lying. I've read worse, though it seemed a little thin, even for a picture book.

Description
A little fish steals a little hat from a fish who was far too big to wear it.
Review
Remind me never to steal a hat from Jon Klassen... As in This Is Not My Hat, thieves do not fare well in Klassen's world. The illustrations are simple,
telling more of the story than the text. It's a very quick read, though again it feels a trifle thin - save the nice, wordless conclusion.
