Old Hat by Emily Gravett - ADVISABLE

Gravett, Emily Old Hat. PICTURE BOOK. Simon & Schuster, 2018. $18. 9781534409170

Harbet loves hats and tries to keep up with the latest fashion. However, no matter how hard he tries he is always wearing an old hat. Harbet feels like he will never fit in until one day he finally decides to do his own thing.

This book has a great message about trying to fit in with the in crowd and how you should not have to try so hard to be like everyone else. I liked the cute story and the creativity with the different kinds of hats. I think elementary kids can understand the message and this would be a great book to illustrate the concept of uniqueness and being confident in yourself.
