Sam's Winter Hat

(3) K-3 Illustrated by David McPhail. Absent-minded Sam Bear loses track of his coat and mittens with little concern. But when his new hat from Grandma goes missing, he's determined to find it. This sweet, sprightly tale's humor is so subtle that it's easy to miss; happily, author Lamb isn't interested in turning the book into a take-care-of-your-things harangue. McPhail's warm, old-fashioned art is as understated as the story.
