Strange things happen in the desert when both predator and prey gather to find out who wore it best. "The Wild Hat" is a humorous, intriguing and entertaining story about wildlife and native plants of the desert. Forty-five beautifully detailed original paintings by Arizona artist Carolyn Schmitz immerse the reader in a fanciful landscape that blurs the imaginary boundaries between humans, animals and plants. When a baby javelina pauses in the shade of a prickly pear cactus, it appears to a passing raven that the piglet is wearing a hat made of a cactus pad. It isn't long before the gossipy bird has broadcast what he's just seen to everyone in the territory. Chatter among the desert dwellers gives rise to the suggestion that they hold a competition to see who can fashion the most beautiful hat. Animals that normally avoid (or eat each other), find much to share. Each hat's arrangement of flower, leaf, twig, cactus pad, berry, or bug inspires great interest and fascination. The instinct to bully, bite, sting, scratch, kick or trample has been pushed aside. Predator and prey, feeling at one with each other, remember that their common ground is the nourishment and beauty that grows out of it - their vast botanical garden once called Eden. The whimsical art of Arizona artist Carolyn Schmitz, from her Desert Dada collection, features wildlife adorned with intricately designed hats made from native plants from the desert and mountains of the Southwest. Adult readers will discover the names of many native plants while children may delight in the comical interactions of the animals as they set about building their hats for the Wild Hat Competition.

“Combines spare text and art to deliver no small measure of laughs in another darkly comic haberdashery whodunit. . . . Hats off!” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) When a tiny fish shoots into view wearing a round blue topper (which happens to fit him perfectly), trouble could be following close behind. So it’s a good thing a certain enormous fish hasn’t woken up. And even if he does, it’s not like he’ll ever know what happened, right? Deadpan visual humor swims to the fore in this Caldecott Medal–winning title in the celebrated hat trilogy.

A New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book of 2011! A picture-book delight by a rising talent tells a cumulative tale with a mischievous twist. Features an audio read-along! The bear’s hat is gone, and he wants it back. Patiently and politely, he asks the animals he comes across, one by one, whether they have seen it. Each animal says no, some more elaborately than others. But just as the bear begins to despond, a deer comes by and asks a simple question that sparks the bear’s memory and renews his search with a vengeance. Told completely in dialogue, this delicious take on the classic repetitive tale plays out in sly illustrations laced with visual humor-- and winks at the reader with a wry irreverence that will have kids of all ages thrilled to be in on the joke.
