Hat On, Hat Off - Board Book

by Theo Heras (Author), Renné Benoit (Illustrator)

Baby is getting dressed to go out. But as
often as his big sister adds a new piece of clothing, he tosses his hat aside.

It's time for this little one to go out. But
which hat will he choose? Red hat, blue hat, striped hat, penguin hat, teddy
bear hat? Once that decision is made, that hat just doesn't stay on while shoes
are tied and a jacket is buttoned. One more visit to the potty. And once this
child is in the stroller at last, will that hat be on his head?

Toddlers will delight in choosing their own
hats after sharing charming story, now available in sturdy board book format. A
simple, rhythmic text that reflects the everyday challenge of getting a busy
toddler ready to go out. Written by Theo Heras and Illustrated with gentle
humor by Renné Benoit.

"Intimate and cozy...A seemingly simple story
is greatly enhanced by nuanced, toddler-friendly details."--Kirkus Reviews
