Who needs friends when you have a great hat? So thinks bear Mr. Brown. But after a woodpecker pecks a hole in the hat and invites his friends to join him there, Mr. Brown starts to appreciate the company; when they fly away (for the winter), he's bereft. The painterly earth-toned art gracefully accommodates the story's magical and emotional elements.
