Becky’s Logic February 2, 2010, at 9:23 pm | If one hat is good, two hats must be great!
P.S. This image of someone wearing multiple hats seems familiar to me, as if I’ve seen a similar illustration in a children’s story book…any ideas? The only one I can come up with right now is from “Caps for Sale,†an old Reading Rainbow book by Esphyr Slobodkina:
If anyone has any other ideas (is there a Dr. Seuss book, perhaps?), please send them my way!

ABOUT US I'm blessed to be saved by the grace of God, loved by my wonderful husband Jim, and embraced by my twin girls, Rebecca Faith and Susanna Joy and my sons Jimmy and Danny. I started this blog in May 2008 when I was hospitalized for pre-term labor at 24 weeks gestation. The Lord allowed me to keep the girls inside until they were 34 weeks along, and on July 27th, Rebecca made her debut, followed by Susanna, five minutes later, on July 28th. We ecstatically welcomed Jimmy into our lives on April 25th, 2011, and Danny on August 31, 2012. This blog has been a personal journal of faith and motherhood and the only way I can remember which child did what and when. Thanks for stopping by to share in my Faith and Joy! Feel free to e-mail me at: [email protected]. |
The “Caps for Sale ” picture is very familiar to me, so perhaps that’s what you are thinking of! This picture also made me think of some of my other favorite childhood books like “The Five Chinese Brothers” and that book about a really fat cat who kept eating people… Also, we saw something similar to hat stacking with pie stacking in “Babes in Toyland”!
One of the first and I think longest books by Dr. Seuss is “The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins.” It was my favorite Dr. Seuss book as a child. It is written in prose and the girls are a little young for it yet.
Someone beat me to it. I was going to tell you “The 500 Hats of Bartholomew cubbins.” Great memories from some of those books.
Thanks, Elizabeth and Vicki, for the Dr. Seuss title. I’m going to have to see if I can grab a copy of that book to refresh my memory!
I was going to say some Bartholomew Cubbins Dr. Seuss story had pictures with lots of hats, but I’m way to slow on the uptake. You’ve probably already bought the book by now!
