Bertie the gardener and his dog Oscar like their life, and their tatty old brown floppy hats too. They wear them everywhere. One day though, Bertie sees someone with a different type of hat, one that makes the guy look important, and he wants to look that way too, so he puts his brown floppy tatty one away and buys a bowler. He is soon dissatisfied when he seen another man looking dignified in a different type of hat, and buys one of those, and so it goes when he sees others in hats looking professional, clever, mysterious and magical, only to find when he wore the other hats, he didn't feel that way at all. My grandson and I like this book-- beyond learning the names of different types of hats, it offered a profound lesson... that what is one the outside is not what makes a person what they are, but on the inside. It is an adorable book for kids! I received this book in exchange for an honest review-- thank you Renee! inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
Bertie the gardener is happy with his life, so is Oscar - his dog. However, this happiness turns to discontent when Bertie sees George looking 'important' in his new bowler hat. Bertie wants one just like it, so that he can look important too. Consequently, he hangs up his comfy old hat and that's when his adventure begins.There's a fun activity page at the back of this book so that children can learn more about different types of hats and their names.

Our sweet hero leads a beautiful, quiet life. He is happy, his hat is part of himself. It makes him who he is. One day, Bertie decides to try a different hat, and then another, and another. With each hat, he acquires a different personality but nothing really suits him. And this is exactly what children should be taught from an early age. They should experiment and make mistakes until they find what is right for them and their aspirations. Noone must force a child to obey an other’s ambitions. This is -and I use the word on purpose- an obsession that I’ve often witnessed in parents in my eleven years of teaching in quite a few ugly forms. Books like Hat will help our little ones understand that they should not be afraid of making mistakes nor should they follow what their friends do because they want to be acceptable or fashionable. After all, many times books can influence children in a way that no adult can.
What can I say about Renèe’s writing and creativity that hasn’t be said? The short texts, the beautiful, vivid illustrations, the lovely game at the end of the book make Hat a perfect little treasure for our young readers. And let’s stop and think for a moment, especially the ones who have dedicated their lives to the wonderful world of the Book. What kind of books do we want to offer our children? Abominations full of spoilt characters that respect nothing and no one, gore, and promises of a future of idleness with illustrations that look as if a drunk artist tried to create a surrealistic anime or books that are suitable for young ages that have a message to communicate to the future generations? I know which ones I use for my classes. It’s the only way for teachers in their effort to prevent this society from going down the drain…
An immense ”thank you” to Renèe and Godfrey for giving me the opportunity to discover one more addition to the list of ideal books for the children of our time.
