“Offers the sly humor fans have come to expect along with a surprisingly tender ending. . . . A thought-provoking capper to Klassen’s ingenious series.” —School Library Journal (starred review)

Two turtles have found a hat. The hat looks good on both of them. But there are two turtles. And there is only one hat . . . Evoking hilarity and sympathy, the shifting eyes tell the tale in this brilliantly paced story that highlights Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen’s visual comedy and deceptive simplicity. With a delicious buildup that takes an unexpected turn, this deadpan cap to the celebrated hat trilogy is certain to please.
