HATTIE AND THE MAGIC HAT is the first in a series of adventures about Hattie - a girl who thought that nothing exciting or interesting ever happened in her home town of Northburgh. Nothing, that is, until one day she found a hat - a long, black, pointed hat with a tassel on the end, which made her hands tingle when she held it... This magical story is complete in itself, but it is also a companion to THE PRIMARY SCHOOL DRAMA BOOK by the same author. ALLEN KERR is a teacher, writer, performer and storyteller who teaches Drama in Primary and Secondary schools. He is the author of THE PRIMARY SCHOOL DRAMA BOOK, which was one of the first publications of its kind to incorporate the Curriculum for Excellence into the teaching of Drama and Expressive Arts in Primary Schools.
