AUTHOR: Simon Philip
ILLUSTRATOR: Kate Hindley
PUBLISHER: Sterling Children’s Books/2016
OPENING LINES: 
I received an invitation to a party.
YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO THE BIGGEST, BESTEST, HATTIEST PARTY OF ALL TIME
Starts at 5:30 pm.
Wide Brim House, 32 Panama Avenue, West Trilby
​you may bring as many extra guests as you wish, 
but you must bring a hat.
Kindest regards, Nigel (host and fanciest hat judge)
P.S. Seriously, don’t forget the hat.
​The party depends on it.
P.P.S. Try not to be late this time.
​Immediately I panicked.
I DIDN’T OWN A HAT!

This book is just pure fun. Silly fun. It starts with a boy who is invited to a party. The only problem is that he must bring a hat, but he doesn’t have one! What’s a boy to do? He comes up with a solution, but that leads to another problem: He’s in violation of yet another party rule. How frustrating! That solution leads to a new problem and the hilariousness continues. Readers will commiserate with the boy who just wants to go to this party but can’t seem to get in! If you’re looking for a fun read with a fun twist ending and equally fun illustrations, I recommend this book!
