Reception
We Found a Hat was received favorably, with a number of starred reviews including from Publishers Weekly,[2] Quill & Quire,[3] the School Library Journal,[4] and Booklist.[5]
The New York Journal of Books wrote "The ending feels almost wrong, a bit too easy, too happily ever after but only in my dreams." and concluded "We Found a Hat and the trilogy as a whole provides an entertaining, easy to read story on one level but also grants plenty of space for more complex and lively discussion."[6]
It has also been reviewed by The Globe and Mail.[7] Common Sense Media,[8] Kirkus Reviews,[9] and The Horn Book.[10]
