AlbakiReads Editorial

Two turtles, one hat

Two turtles discover a hat that suits them both, but there is only one to share. Jon Klassen builds the situation around that simple imbalance, using the turtles’ shifting eyes as part of the visual storytelling. The premise gives the book room for comic tension as well as a question of what each turtle wants when they both like the same thing. It is the concluding book in Klassen’s hat trilogy, bringing the series’ recurring hat motif to a close through a compact, picture-led story.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 who enjoy humorous picture books
  • Families looking for a story about sharing and competing desires
  • Readers familiar with the earlier books in Jon Klassen’s hat trilogy

Book overview

A New York Times bestseller!

"Offers the sly humor fans have come to expect along with a surprisingly tender ending. . . . A thought-provoking capper to Klassen's ingenious series." --School Library Journal (starred review)

Two turtles have found a hat. The hat looks good on both of them. But there are two turtles. And there is only one hat . . . Evoking hilarity and sympathy, the shifting eyes tell the tale in this brilliantly paced story that highlights Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen's visual comedy and deceptive simplicity. With a delicious buildup that takes an unexpected turn, this deadpan cap to the celebrated hat trilogy is certain to please.
