Illustrated by
David Roberts.
Lonely hatmaker Madame Chapeau gussies up and takes herself out to a birthday dinner, but a crow steals her birthday bonnet. Townspeople offer their own headpieces, but a little girl's gift, an unusual knitted cap, is ultimately the perfect fit. This charming, French-seasoned rhyming jaunt stars former milliner Roberts's refined illustrations, which include nods to famous hats from fashion history.
