This review is from: Skating with Bears (Hardcover)

Skating with the Bears is a wintertime treat. The illustrations are embossed and some are fuzzy and others sparkle so they literally leap from the page. The story of a young boy learning to skate is classic and filled with imagination and whimsy. Great for lap read with a toddler where they can touch the pages as you read. Excellent holiday gift.
