Product Description
Product Description
Huge-headed Mr. Tadaa and the little person are mighty lonely. Surrounded by hat-tippers who are always tipping their hats and shunning those who don't return the favor, poor Mr. Tadaa has a head too big for his hat. Even worse, the little person's hat is so big it wears him. One blustery day, Mr. Tadaa's hat and the little person are blown away by the wind . . . and right into each other! A surprise twist at the end shows that even in a world of hat-tippers, nonconformists can find happiness and friendship.

Fantastic! Tadaa!,
By John Burns "Author of Runnerland, a novel for... (Vancouver, BC Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Day It All Blew Away (Hardcover)
Emily Carr grad Lisa Cinar has created an appealing story about difference. Mr. Tadaa likes to go out for walks and such, but he's got a problem: "His head was very big, and MUCH too huge for his tiny hat." Every time he meets an acquaintance, he's expected to tip his tiny hat; you can see what a problem this might be. Meanwhile, a hat named Ahh "was unnaturally large for his occupation" and couldn't tip without throwing his owner right off. One day Mr. Tadaa and Ahh crossed paths. "I know what you might think would have happened," writes Cinar. But the resolution to this lively pen-and-watercolour story is a bit unexpected. The gorgeous, zany pictures will inspire drawing and craft sessions, not to mention some furious hat-tipping the next time you go out. Tadaa!
