Rendered in sombre hues with a gradual fading out of the soft orange as the sun finally sinks, this is desert dryness in more senses than one. Red Reading Hub This sparsely worded and drawn picture book captures brilliantly the concept of sharing and is cleverly conceived, a wonderful conclusion to a fantastic series and a highly recommended addition to any bookshelf! Armadillo Simple language and deceptively simple illustrations make this the kind of bedtime story that children will return to again and again. The Irish Times Klassen's inimitable deadpan humour combines with muted pink-and-grey landscapes, black space and soaring stars to create a taut, terse, surprisingly uplifting book. The Guardian This is the perfect ending to Jon Klassen's hat trilogy. We leave some of the darker aspects of the previous two titles behind, but without sacrificing the substance and sheer brilliance of Klassen's storytelling. The humour, the tension, the shifty eyes, all of Klassen's trademarks come out in this deadpan yet touching tale of two friends. It's the ideal story to share with youngsters beginning to learn the nuances of friendship. Booktrust This is the third in Jon Klassen's utterly brilliant Hat trilogy (I Want My Hat Back and This Is Not My Hat) and is just as witty and expressive as its predecessors - although the deadpan humour leads to a warmer ending. [...] Klassen once again creates a moral dilemma over a completely unlikely and impractical object and conjures up powerful emotional turmoil simply through the creatures' eye movements. A glorious ending makes this (ant the previous two titles) essential reading for every family. Daily Mail "Award-winning Jon Klassen is as witty, engaging and subtle as ever in this delightful story with a very big theme but told in only a very few words. Two Turtles find a hat. It looks good on both of them and they would both love to wear it. But there are two of them and only one hat. What will they do? Jon Klassen's trademark minimalist illustrations carry all the expression that is needed to tell this story of wanting and sharing. A gem of a book to read, re-read and savour." Julia Eccleshare Book of the Month October 2016, LoveReading The highly anticipated final book in Jon Klassen's amusing and thought provoking "hat" trilogy [...] Bookseller A finely observed tale of friendship, sharing and generosity of spirit. Their shifting eyes say so much with so little you really feel the turtles emotions as one fights his need for the hat. A visual comedy i three parts will amuse with its deadpan humor. Really heart warming finale to the acclaimed hat trilogy. Quietly profound and very special. South Wales Evening Post The award-winning author of I Want My Hat Back tells big stories simply. He is at his glorious best in We Found a Hat, which, with a minimum of words and the sparsest pictures, wittily captures the intense difficulty of sharing. The Guardian "This is an age category where elements more favourable to older readers can sometimes sneak in. Jon Klassen's We Found a Hat, the third in his hat trilogy, offers up a tense situation where a turtle must choose between wanting something very badly and betraying a friend." The Irish Times "the final instalment in Jon Klassen's ingeniously sparse desert trilogy doesn't disappoint" Evening Standard "[...] yet another great picturebook written and illustrated by Jon Klassen. [...] the perfect close for Klassen's Hat Trilogy." Irish Times, Children's Books of the Year recommended by Tarsila Kruse "A delightful story, told to a greater degree in the turtles' shifty side-eyes, and has a more unusual ending than previous Hat stories, but still leaves the reader wondering." Irish Times, Children's Books of the Year recommended by Olivia Hope

First off, I adore Jon Klassen's work, esp. I Want My Hat Back (which, if somehow you don't have it, go buy it, right now). We Found a Hat is so very gentle and so very sweet and so really unlike I Want My Hat Back and This is Not My Hat, both of which have a kind of edge to them. Two tortoises, obviously very old and close friends, find a hat -- only one hat. They leave it, as it would only cause friction between them, but it's amazing how Klassen manages to infuse covetousness in one of two identical tortoises just by manipulating its eyes. There is no violence (not even implied off-screen) and in the end no betrayal, only an affirmation of the bond of friendship. The story and the book are both very beautiful and if this completes Klassen's "Hat Trilogy," it ends just right.

It isn't often a writer/illustrator comes along like Klassen. He is in the same class as Steig, Sendak and Virginia Lee Burton. I have an unfettered love and appreciation for his words and illustrations. As such, I knew this book would be great. I didn't think it could exceed my expectations, but it did. Whether it was a tightly kept secret or I simply missed the memo, it came as a surprise to me We Found A Hat is a story of friendship. It is the best in his 'Hat series,' which is truly saying something. Buy it and read it aloud to the ones you love best.

Loved this book so much; I purchased the other two "hat" books. My granddaughter is three and loved the stories as well. This one in particular has a story which is a little more fitting to a three year old. The other two books are fantastic and funny, but the endings are better suited to 5 year olds and up. Would recommend absolutely and no second thoughts about my purchase of these fabulously written books.

Another great book by Jon Klassen. It's too bad this one didn't also win a Caldicott or a Theodor Seuss Geisel award as his earlier two did. This later installment focuses on the good in one's heart as opposed to one's deviousness. Don't get me wrong, his earlier books (I want my hat back and This is not my hat) are hilarious and are great for kids in that they demonstrate the trouble that comes from deception, but "We Found a Hat" is very touching and offers a lesson on what it means to be a true friend. Oh, and it's funny, too!

Answering the age old question of "can you have your hat and wear it," this is a very well done job of telling a story with a minimum amount of words and driving a story more with visual cues. If you like the two previous hat books, this is in the same category of publication. If you didn't like it, well, this book isn't for you.
