the price. I heard of this book from a kindergarten teacher. She described a unique lesson she had given to her kindergarten class with this book and a bowl of strawberries. Before reading, she scented her classroom with strawberry scented sprays and candles and incense. Then she read the book. Afterwards, the students ate strawberries just like the little mouse in the story. I thought it was such a great lesson. She assured me that my grandson would think the story was wonderful. So I bought the book from Amazon.com a few days later, and by now I have read the book many times to my first grader grandson who is having trouble with reading. It has helped inspire him to learn new words. He loves the story so much that he will practice the words in the story.

This is my 2-year old's favorite book right now. She has the entire book memorized, and she "reads" it to me daily. It is so funny to listen to her expressions and watch her face while she dramatically "reads" this wonderful book. As in Wood's book "I'm Quick as a Cricket" the illustrations are beautiful. We love the book, and we have passed it on to many others as a gift. You can't go wrong with "The Big Hungry Bear"

My son absolutely adored this book. For months, we had to check the produce aisle at the supermarket; if they were out of strawberries, we were sure the big hungry bear had come and gone.

This is a wonderful book and a delight to both children and adults. The illustrations are beautiful and endearing. It is sure to be a family favorite

This story is sure to tickle your funny bone! Illustrations are very well done and your child (or your child inside) will love it
