Candlewick Press Activity Kit Candlewick Press Activity Kit With dry, irreverent humor and quirky illustrations, Jon Klassen’s unique picture books have captured the imagination of children and adults alike. His authorial debut I Want My Hat Back, a 2012 Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor Book, tells the story of a bear who has lost his hat and is determined to find it. In the companion title, 2013 Caldecott Medal winner This Is Not My Hat, a little fish steals a hat from a big fish. The little fish is sure he’ll get away with it, but trouble follows close behind . This kit features six simple, fun activities — including drawing activities, character cut-outs, and a crossword puzzle — that will allow children to engage with Klassen’s books both creatively and conceptually. So gather up your art supplies for an adventure with some of your favorite characters — and hold on to your hat!
