You Must Bring a Hat

Kate Hindley is a talented new illustrator who graduated from Falmouth School of Art in 2008. Kate lives in Worcestershire. Simon was born in Chichester in 1988 and has lived there ever since, although he occasionally leaves to buy milk. After gaining a 1st class degree in History at Exeter University, he immediately put his skills to good use working as a barman at a local pub. He soon grew tired of the owner calling him Andy, and so, naturally, decided to become a primary school teacher. Teaching rekindled his love of children's literature, particularly picture books, so much so that he had a go at writing his own. Deciding he was better at writing stories for children than he would ever be at teaching them, he made a swift exit from education to live the cliche of the writer who works in a bar. He hopes that one day he'll be able to give up writing stories and become a barman full-time.
PreS-Gr 1—Philip's new picture book revolves around one impossible rule. If you want to attend Nigel's party, you must bring a hat. But all the hats in the town of West Trilby have been sold out. What ensues is a succession of bent rules that involve more than just the young invitee listed on the invitation. Other invited guests include a tutu-wearing elephant, a penguin carrying a suitcase full of sliced cheese, and a piano-playing badger who wears a monocle. When the boy finally has what he needs to enter the party, he finds out he's at the wrong address, and he's late. VERDICT A zany addition to storytime and party shelves.—Tanya Boudreau, Cold Lake Public Library, Alta.
