Jennie's excitement at getting a new hat from her aunt evaporates when she sees how plain it is. However, with the help of the birds she regularly feeds in the park, she is able to decorate her hat to rival the elaborate confections she sees in church. Keats's clever use of collage makes Jennie's hat a wonder to behold, sure to captivate any little girl who loves to dress up.
