Summary: Beautiful illustrations with informative text
Comment: This is a story of John Batterson Stetson and how he invented the hat "Boss Of The Plains" or more commonly known as the "ten-gallon hat". As a boy, John Stetson dreamed of going west. When at last he went, he became an important part of the Great American Frontier Adventure. Others struck gold or blazed trails through unknown territory, but John Stetson made his mark with a hat. The beautiful pictures in this book could have told the story themselves and it will get kids interested in an important part of history.

Summary: The pictures in the book were terrible.
Comment: The illustrations were terrible, information was scarce, and my four year old is under the impression that she can stain her hat with berries.
Rating: 5
Summary: great illustrations and great story
Comment: I think this was a very interesting way to tell people how the cowboy hat was invented. The artwork was what first attracted me to this book, and the illustrations were wonderful. I am 10 years old, and I think this book would be great for children of all ages.
