High in the mountains of Japan, a snow monkey named Hiro finds a cheerful hat. “Snow monkeys don’t need hats!” his brother tells him.

But Hiro’s hat does more than keep him warm – it is also a friend.

Only a robin understands. And when Hiro’s hat disappears, she surprises him, in time, with two more hats, each as playful and full of life as his first.

Elisa Kleven's newest story is another precious addition to the canon of children's literature - a picture book worthy of considering adding to your child's book shelf, the ones that will be read over and over again throughout childhood.

“Gently whimsical…Mixed-media collage illustrations show sweet-faced monkeys at play in richly textural landscapes. Through Hiro, Kleven sympathetically illustrates young children’s ability to find emotional connections to inanimate objects, and the creative ways they can respond to stress.” — Publishers Weekly
