He would like to show off these hats, but, he is too shy. One day, Mr. Pockles meets Lady Coco Fitz Tulip whose family hat has been destroyed and new friendships blossom. Kindness counts as evidenced in this lovely picture book about sharing. The vivid mixed media illustrations, especially when the baby bunnies eat a hat, are as necessary to the story as the words. The illustrations move with the text alternating between serious, playful and downright giddy, as when Lady Coco Fitz Tulip gets her special hat. The thoughtful story and eye-catching illustrations make this story a wonderful read aloud for children ages 3-8. Read. Enjoy. Share. A hat-loving pooch with no friends to speak of, Mr. Pockles longed to attend Hat Day at the PandaPolitan Club. Unfortunately, only pandas were allowed. Then, while out buying himself a treat, he encountered Lady CoCo Fitz-Tulip, and stepping into the breach when that lady's hat was ruined, won both a coterie of friends and an invite to Hat Day... A fun, engaging tale of a lonely individual who finds a way, through his favorite article of clothing, to connect with others, author Sally Lloyd-Jones' story in Hats Off to Mr. Pockles! is paired with bright, colorful artwork from British illustrator David Litchfield, whose own picture-book debut, The Bear and the Piano, was such a winner. I loved the illustrations here, quite a bit more than the text (not that the text was poor, mind you), and it therefore annoyed me that on a number of the two-page spreads the artwork was printed in such a manner that the gutter interfered with the reader's ability to enjoy the visuals. There were spreads where the gutter ran right through Lady Coco's face, for instance. This is a design flaw, rather than an artistic one, I think, but it interfered with my enjoyment a bit. Leaving that aside, this is a picture-book I would recommend, both to readers looking for children's stories about kindness and making friends, and to fellow fans of David Litchfield's illustrations.
