WE FOUND A HAT by Jon Klassen tells the story of two turtle friends who discover a hat.
When two turtles find a hat, they decide to leave it alone since there aren’t enough hats for both friends. This highly visual story makes it clear that at least one of the turtle is conflicted about leaving the hat.
Klassen is known for his clever use of simple illustrations to convey humor and detail.
Librarians will find this to be useful book for teaching concepts in visual literacy. Read the book a number of times asking children to retell the story using the visuals for added detail.
