A guilty-looking little fish has taken a tiny bowler from the head of a large sleeping fish. He explains why he won't be caught (the fish is asleep, he won't wake up or notice the missing hat, etc.), but every claim he makes is belied by the pictures. Telling almost the whole story through subtle movements, Klassen lets readers in on this darkly hilarious joke.
