Rosie''s Hat isn''t just any old hat. When a gust of wind sweeps it off her head, it goes off on a whole hatful of adventures! It becomes a toy for a dog, a hiding-place for a mouse, a frisbee for some children and even a nest for some birds. Surely poor Rosie will never find her hat again . . . or will she? This satisfyingly circular tale from Julia Donaldson, the author of The Gruffalo, is packed with irresistible sound effects, making it perfect for children to join in with - and Anna Currey''s beautiful watercolour illustrations perfectly capture the warmth and fun of the story. From the creators of One Ted Falls Out of Bed : ''Another little miracle from Julia Donaldson.'' - The Bookseller
