Klassen, J. (2012). This is not my hat. Boston, MA: Candlewick.
A small fish steals a hat from a large sleeping fish and goes on to explain why he won't be caught, while the illustrations hint otherwise. In the end, the reader is cleverly and uniquely led to the conclusion that the little fish was wrong. The illustrations are critical in this clever, simple, and entertaining story. In the end, the reader is left to their own imagination by the use of wordless pages. This book can be used in the classroom to again demonstrate how literature can be creative and fun. Young students will enjoy the twist at the end.
