Reviews
"As Montessorians, we all know that the child must be given understandable, interesting bits of information in isolation upon which their intellectual mind can work. When describing children's literature, Dr. Montessori said, 'The stories must be short, with a few well-drawn characters, and the environment must be limited, unusual, and very clear.' Trevor has creatively exemplified this concept with his whimsical tale That 17th Hat." —Monte Kenison, Director of Training, AMI Montessori Teacher Training Center of Northern California
"A terrific read for any young child that loves exploration and creativity. That 17th Hat is a unique portrayal of diverse cultures through the eyes of a family in search of adventure. Creative illustrations highlight their exploration and quest for 'that 17th hat.' Recommended reading for parents and their young children, or the young reader that wants to venture on their own into the journey. The kid's really enjoyed it." —Derek Eiler, co-founder of Montessori MadMen
“We especially like the rich use of language, including the specific names for all the hats—some of which will no doubt be new to young readers—the unexpected rhymes, and the use of alliteration. The book also exemplifies other Montessori values, such as an appreciation for cultures worldwide and tenderness towards living creatures.” —The American Montessori Society
