More About the Author

Ellen Weiss has lost count of how many kids' books she's written, that's how long she's been doing it. There are probably over 200, from board books to chapter books to middle-grade novels, fiction and nonfiction, silly and serious. They have won many awards, and have been adapted into a Disney TV movie and a BBC radio play. Two of them, THE TAMING OF LOLA and PORKY AND BESS, were named Bank Street Best Books of 2010. She loves to collaborate, and she often writes with her husband, Mel Friedman. She also loves to rescue stray dogs, but she had to stop when the aforementioned Mel Friedman told her he would divorce her if she brought home one more filthy, un-housebroken, weird mutt.

This review is from: A Birthday Surprise! (Bear in the Big Blue House (Paperback Simon & Schuster)) (Paperback)

A Birthday Surprise is a great book for the birthday girl or boy! We bought this book for our daughter's first birthday and she enjoys flipping through the pages while watching Bear on tv or before bedtime.

Not only does A Birthday Surprise have beautiful brightly colored pages but it also comes with some bitrhday fun stickers. The story follows a birthday party in the Big Blue House from the begining to the end and shows kids all the fun that the birthday boy or girl has and all the fun everyone else has too.
