Only the best,
This review is from: Father Bear Comes Home (I Can Read Book 1) (Hardcover)
The Little Bear saga are truly classic. From the artwork and storylines you think you are reading a Victorian era storybook. No your grandmother didn't read these stories to you. Soon enough we will be reading them to our grandchildren. Buy the hardback versions, your grandkids will love them.

We love little bear,
By Elizabeth's Mom "Verna" (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Father Bear Comes Home (I Can Read Book 1) (Paperback)
My daughter loves little bear and she loves chapter stories, which this one provides. It's a good night time story as they are short, but interesting. It's a good lead-in to longer stories which will require finishing the next night....classic and endearing.

Two boys' review: One of Papa's favorites for bedtime reading,
By
This review is from: Father Bear Comes Home (I Can Read Book 1) (Paperback)
This book is another great addition to the Little Bear series (see my other reviews). Father Bear goes on a fishing trip and his Little Bear wonders what he may catch...an octopus, a whale, maybe a mermaid.
Perfect for young readers and a great bedtime book (with four interwoven stories inside, so you can stop if your audience gets sleepy). My sons can relate to Little Bear and his imagination. The stories are easier to follow yet entertaining enough to support multiple readings.
