Jon Klassen's Hat Books
Hey there Lion Cubs! Happy Tuesday! Welcome back for another edition of Long Distance Library. Today we are going to celebrate the books of Jon Klassen. He has written and illustrated three of his own books and illustrated the works of many other authors. Klassen's trio of books all have a hat theme. His first book was I Want My Hat Back. His second book was This Is Not My Hat. And the third was We Found a Hat. Click here for my daily video and then on with the show!
Little Angel Theatre is a puppet theatre in London, England. They first opened their doors in 1961. Since then they have dedicated themselves to entertaining children and training future puppeteers. Not only do they host puppet shows in their theatre, they also travel all over the world sharing their productions. Back in April, the puppeteers staged a production of Jon Klassen's first book I Want My Hat Back. This production was so successful, they decided to do the same with his other two hat books. These productions were recorded and are housed on the Little Angel Theatre's YouTube page. Click on the links below to watch each of the Little Angel Theatre's puppet productions of Jon Klassen's hat books. Sit back and enjoy! And get ready for a standing ovation!
