Hattie is no ordinary magician! Her magic hat is no ordinary hat! Welcome everyone to Hattie's magic show! After saying the magic words, "Abracadabra, katakurico" readers can take a peek into the magic hat and guess what's hiding inside. Is it a cat? Is it a squirrel? A small portion of each animal is sticking out from the hat for readers to play "peek-a-boo", take a guess and have some fun! The grand finale is full of excitement and grandeur. Hattie's magic show is a huge hit and will be beloved by little readers everywhere.
The artwork in Hat Tricks is stunning! Hat Tricks could be a wordless book thanks to the detail and expressions of the vivid characters presented by Satoshi Kitamura. Readers will enjoy the guessing game of figuring out which animal will pop out of the hat next. Readers will also love the final page when a magical and unexpected surprise ending takes place. We enjoyed reading this fun picture book!
