A MAN AND HIS HAT
by Letitia Parr & illustrated by Paul Terrett & photographed by Bob Peters
In doggerel with plenty of amusing rhymes and repetitions for beginning readers, the story of an old man who looks everywhere for his hat and finally finds it under his sleeping cat. Of most interest here are the clean, bright illustrations— photos of artfully sculpted plasticene—the expressive figures skillfully adjusted to create each new scene. Mildly amusing; the medium steals the show. (Picture book. 3-7)
