"This giddy, rhymed episode . . . . will have children demanding repeated readings and completing each verse at top volume." - Kirkus Reviews, Broad, lively . . . will have children demanding repeated reading and completing each verse at top volume., "Broad, lively . . . will have children demanding repeated reading and completing each verse at top volume."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Charming."--The New York Times Book Review --, "Broad, lively . . . will have children demanding repeated reading and completing each verse at top volume."-- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Charming."-- The New York Times Book Review, Preschool-Grade 3--A whirling, magical hat sweeps into a bustling park, transforming each adult on whom it alights into a fun-loving animal. Rhymed verses add to the humor and allow listeners to predict what will follow as the page turns. A group of delighted children takes up the path of the hat's swirling confetti, until, at last, a large, but impish wizard appears. He restores the characters to their former selves and leaves a large, spotted egg that hatches, distracting the crowd as he turns to leave. But that's not the end. Donning the hat himself, the wizard becomes a high-spirited boy, framed by starlight, kicking up sparkles. Tusa's ink-and-watercolor images dance with life (even the flowers seem to be in motion); kinetic, double-page designs spill off the pages. Add this to your favorite headpiece storytime. Children will be bursting to participate. Wendy Lukehart, Washington DC Public Library, The titular topper of this rollicking, rhyming read-aloud is indeed magic: when it blows into town one day, it plops down on the head of resident after resident, instantly transforming each person into an animal. Each time the chapeau lands, Fox (Time for Bed) reprises the refrain, "Oh, the magic hat, the magic hat! It moved like this, it moved like that! It spun through the air!" At this point the author inserts a varying line (e.g., "Like a bounding balloon"; "For a mile and a half"), and a flip of the page reveals what animal the new hat-wearer becomes (in the above instances, a baboon and a giraffe). Kids will eagerly join in the guessing game, which Tusa's (Camilla's New Hairdo) fittingly silly, bustling ink-and-watercolor illustrations whip up into high-octane action. Her clever details add to the clues; for instance, a fruit-stand seller juggles bananas as the hat transforms him into a baboon. A supporting cast of animated children witness the zany goings-on, reacting gleefully to each transformation. These characters' unbridled enjoyment will almost certainly evoke the same response from readers. Ages 3-7., "Broad, lively . . . will have children demanding repeated reading and completing each verse at top volume."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"Charming."--The New York Times Book Review
