Our twin daughters had just turned 3 when we got them this book. I liked the art work and it came highly recommended by the store owner. The girls really liked it, it even helped them want to wear underwear one day when we were going back and forth about wanting a diaper versus underwear. The cover has real underwear on the bear and girls love touching that, they like it at the end when all the animals are wearing underwear and so many of the pairs are crazy looking, even the light suspense at the animals wanting bear to open backpack got the girls going. As for the readability aspect, it is a little lacking, there is a lot of verbage that is in white bubble form characters that does not lend itself well to being read to little kids at bed time for example, but as a beginning reader for then the girls are old enough this will be a great book. The 5 star is for the cute/fun/crazy-but-not-too-out-there factor and the fact that it really engaged my girls.

My daughter loves this book so much that we give copies of it to all of her friends for their birthdays.

My 6 year old wanted this book and has enjoyed it very much. He and I read it several times a week. It's one of his top choices in books to read right now.

I first came across this book in the store, and it had me rolling. Love, love the illustrations and funny dialogue. Probably even more fun for adults than kids!

She is seven years old and she loved this book. She said it was a very, very funny book. Her favorite part of the book is when he tried on all the underwear.

My husband and I found this book in the store first and laughed so hard, but then it was out of print in those places, so you gotta love Amazon - I ordered 3 more from here! My daughter is only one ,but she loves the story and the bright pictures. I've also gotten it for all of my friends whose children are potty training. Such a hilarious story, really a fun one for any kids!!

This is the craziest book ever. But my 2 year old daughter loves it and we have read it constantly since we got it a week ago.

I bought this book for my 2-1/2 yr old son around the time he was potty training. It's not about potty training, but does talk about wearing underwear. It is the silliest story and so much fun to read over and over. We love it!

The book opens with "Bear" and his friends playing hide and seek; they all disappear and leave "Bear" in his hiding place. It is only when he gets hungry and goes home in order to get something to eat that he finds his friends. They never apologized for leaving him in the woods. Which seems like a small thing until the peer pressure of the next scene.

Then the main character "Bear" is pressured by his "friends" into opening a backpack that he found on the road. It bothered me that he caved into their wishes when he was uncomfortable doing so instead of making his own decision.

Later in the book "Bear's" friends use words like "Lame" and "Dorky" to describe some of the underwear that "Bear" finds in the backpack.

IDK, theres part of me that likes the story, and "Bear" is a very likable character. But some aspects of the story, although easy to relate to, are not things I want to reinforce.
