A polite bear asks every animal in the forest if they have seen his missing hat, and one answer sounds awfully suspicious. The deadpan humor and surprise ending make kids howl.
A tiny fish steals a hat and swims away, confident he'll get away with it, but the big fish is on his trail. A darkly funny Caldecott winner.
Two turtles find one hat in the desert, and both secretly want it. Quietly funny and surprisingly sweet, it shows how choosing friendship can matter more than getting what you want.
The epic tale of how Rock, Paper, and Scissors met. Big laughs for kids and adults.
Alexander flatly refuses to move when his family relocates, and he means it. A funny, honest story for any kid dreading a big change.
A boy learns mistakes are part of learning anything. A great confidence builder for kids who hate getting it wrong.
A family rushes to clean before Grandma visits, but the cat keeps rearranging the chore list. Funny, chaotic, and a laugh out loud read aloud.
Another punny Food Group story, this time about bragging and why a little humility goes a long way.
Exclamation Mark feels different from the periods, until he learns what makes him special. Clever, funny, and great for being yourself.
