The Hat

It appeared out of nowhere! 

None of the little bugs knew what it was or where it came from. Some thought it was a nest. Another said it might have been something to eat! According to some, eternal night lived inside it. Every little bug and butterfly had an idea of what it could be, and everyone wanted it for themselves. 

This book is an absurd story about a strange hat and its many twists and turns. Will the little bugs find a peaceful way to share the hat together? 

The Hat by Anne Vasko is the last part of a trilogy, which deals with serious issues and big emotions with a humorous touch. The first part of the trilogy, A Kiss is a gender-neutral love story of an airplane and a library car, and the second part, Pony’s Tail is a crime story the size of a hobby horse.

  • Ibby Finland

    “Anne Vasko’s picture book trilogy is playful, funny and multi-layered. At the same time, the works that combine fairy tale and surprise lead to the most important questions. Vasko’s illustrations, splashing in stunning colours, are skilful and beautiful.”
