Fred is a stylish man about town with a hat for every occasion. He is extremely proud of his hat collection, but when the Queen comes to visit, Fred's hobby lands him in hot water...

Get Ahead Fred teaches that the biggest is not always the best, as our hero pays the ultimate price for his obsession. The story will entertain readers and widen their vocabulary, as youngsters learn the names of the hats in Fred's weird and wonderful collection. This cautionary tale is brought to life with beautiful hand-made models and hand-written rhyming text.
