內容簡介

With a Jon Klassen appeal, Steve Antony, a debut author-illustrator, is the one to watch. A sudden gust of wind sets off a marvellous London adventure for the Queen, the Queen's men and one very special hat. So let's follow one determined, daredevil queen through the zoo, over Tower Bridge and up Big Ben...just where will that hat land? A witty and stylish celebration of London, the Queen and the royal family's new baby. 'This is a wonderful romp of a read that's a great introduction to London, royalty and all that makes Britain great.' - The Sun '...this picture book is hard to beat for its sweet simplicity and charming monochromatic drawings.' - The Times
英國皇室添了新成員,女王陛下正要去看望這個小家伙。一陣頑皮的風吹起,送女王和她的士兵們踏上了一段新奇的倫敦之旅!簡潔而色彩鮮明的插圖為圖書增加了一抹幽默氣息,卻也不失莊重。



女王正要去看望一個非常特別的小人兒,嗖的一聲,一陣強風吹來,吹走了女王頭上的帽子。帽子飛過了女王頭頂,飛過了衛兵頭頂,一路飛過了特拉法廣場、倫敦動物園,飛進了倫敦地下鐵,穿過了倫敦眼,飛過了塔橋和大本鐘。終于,在肯辛頓皇宮上空,嗖的一聲,帽子飛到了皇室小寶貝的頭上,而女王和她的衛兵們這時也慢慢從天降落。
