While You Were Chasing a Hat

(3) PS Harper Growing Tree series. Illustrated by Rosanne Litzinger. A brief, evocative poem describes the wind one blustery day: "The wind that whirled your hat away / furled a flag / filled a sail / raced a boat / tugged a kite / tweaked its tail...." Like the text, the artwork encourages page-turning; after pursuing her hat across the carefree, summery illustrations, a smiling girl holds the hat on her head on the last page.
