Brimsby’s Hats by Andrew Prahin

A lonely hat maker uses quirky creativity to make friends in this delightful picture book that will charm readers young and old.

Brimsby is a happy hat maker—until his best friend goes off to find adventure at sea. Now Brimsby is a lonely hat maker, unsure of what to do. But since making hats is what he does best, perhaps his talents can help him find some friends…

Filled with whimsy and wonder, Brimsby’s Hats is a celebration of creativity and friendship.

Seriously you will die from the cute. I saw another blog feature some art from this the other day and was filled with immediate want. So when I was helping someone shop for picture books and saw it on the shelf I just had to read it. Seriously I don’t think that there is a cuter picture book out there.  The style of the art is fresh and lively, even the page layouts are cute. The story will also make you squee, especially how Brimsby makes those new friends. I’m smitten. This is another one that I need to buy for myself and three other people, as many as I can think of. I really want someone to make a stuffed Brimsby, I don’t think that is a thought that I have ever had before. This is also the perfect snow day book!
