Synopsis:
Clara Button loves hats, she adores them, but when her energetic older brother decides to skateboard inside the house he firstly knocks all her beads over the floor and secondly gets a very precious hat (it was Clara's grandmothers.) off a top shelf and rips it.
So to make Clara a bit happier, her mother takes her to the Victoria and Albert museum, where Clara embarks on an amazing adventure!

What I thought:
This is a very sweet picture book, with an exciting story to entertain children aged between 6-9, I think.
The pictures were very unusual, not like pictures I've seen before, and very detailed, and the story, especially where Clara goes to the museum, was very thrilling! I think children will adore this book! It's very groovy!

Hi,
ReplyDeleteMy name's Emily Sutton and I've just seen your lovely review of Clara Button and The Magical Hat Day- which I drew the illustrations for. I'm really pleased that you liked it, I'm currently working on the sequel which will be published next year. Great blog by the way!
Hi Emily,
