Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Grade 1—This likable character and his animal friends are back in one of their best outings since Bear Snores On (S & S, 2002). While walking in the woods, Bear gets lost, and the other critters begin to worry about him. They form a search party, find their friend, and return to the lair to cuddle up and fall asleep, and finally, "the bear feels safe." Wilson's rhyming text moves along at a steady clip, with only the smallest missteps in meter, and the repeated refrain begs for audience participation. Chapman's acrylic illustrations perfectly mesh realism with emotional expression; the characters show their concern for Bear, whose fear is almost palpable. The combination of full-bleed spreads, single-page paintings, and smaller insets keeps the story flowing and encourages page turns. Bear's cozy den, painted in warm oranges and browns, contrasts effectively with the outdoor scenes, done in blacks, blues, and grays. The reassuring story is simple, but speaks to children's fears and the safety they find with the people who care about them, creating a comforting and accessible forum for discussion. With its large, richly colored illustrations, this book will work equally well one-on-one or in storytime, and listeners are sure to request repeated readings.—Amy Lilien-Harper, The Ferguson Library, Stamford, CT

5.0 out of 5 stars Karma doesn't disappoint...., September 8, 2008
Bear Feels Scared is another great addition to the Bear series. This entire series is a family favorite at bed time. I can't wait to see what happens with Bear and his friends next.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Story, September 22, 2008
This is a wonderful story for any youngster from ages 3-8. The illustrations are magnificent and story lines rhyme and blend very well. This story is a good way to help your child overcome basic fears.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great book by Karma Wilson, August 21, 2008
By G. Marshall (Mason, OH) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love all the Bear books from Karma. The rhythm and rhyming is excellent, making them such a joy to read. My older kids like to read along or at least read the title line in each verse, and the little ones like the beautiful illustrations. The story is great. For my kids it makes them feel good to know that even their trusted friend Bear gets scared, so they are not alone. I highly recommend this, and all of Mrs. Wilson's books.

The illustrations are perfect for the fall/Halloween- not too spooky for the little ones. The story is not up to the standard of Bear Snores On- not quite as fun to read aloud.
