The Argus (A Cape Town Newspaper)- Dec.1989
Grandma's Hat by Rosemary Kahn, illustrated by Terry Milne.
No one could tell stories like Grandma, especially those about her childhood in the Karoo. She tells of her Sunday best clothes which included a hat - the ugliest hat she had ever seen -and how she lost it. She gets a beautiful replacement and once again comes across the old one, now serving a useful purpose. A gentle story of a time gone by.
FAIR LADY Magazine
Grandma's Hat by Rosemary Kahn - A gentle, humorous story about a little girl and a dreadful hat, set in bygone days in the De Aar district. Lyrically illustrated by Terry Milne.
Grandma's Hat by Rosemary Kahn - thoroughly captivating! - Marina le Roux - ISKEMUS
Cape Times - Joan Shaper Cohen
Wallow delightedly in whimsical, witty words. Grandma's Hat by Rosemary Kahn seems to spring from deep emotions and recollections of childhood as Grandma tells her grandchildren the simple, real story of an episode of her life as a young girl living in a small Karoo town.
