A New York Times Best Illustrated Book of 2022 The Little Prince
meets Journey in this gorgeous, reassuring picture book fable about
loss, perseverance, and finding what matters most. What happens to
a boy who has nothing but a hat? Everything. A boy wakes up one
morning and finds that everything he owns has gone missing. With
nothing but a simple green hat, the boy journeys through distant
landscapes, searching high and low for the things he has lost.
Along the way he discovers that perhaps everything he needs has
been with him all along. Stephen Barr makes his debut in this
achingly poignant and deeply profound fable of one boy's adventure
to recover his life's treasures. With vibrant illustrations by
Gracey Zhang and a subtle message about hopeful perseverance, this
book is an exquisite, emotional journey through loss, persistence,
and discovering what's truly essential. TIMELESS PICTURE BOOK:
