If your pre-schoolers love " Bear in the Big Blue House" on TV, they will adore this book.

Jim Henson has over the years created some very lovable characters. The Bear has to be one of the best so far.

In this "Lift the Flap" book we get to meet all Bear's friends. We have Pip and Pop covered in suds in the bath. And then there's Treelo under the bed covers and Ojo under the sofa.

Open the shutters and look out the attic window. Who do we see? It's our special friend Luna.

A perfect bed time book for the young ones.

"Good night, my friend" says Bear.

This book is a great adjunct to the TV show. As new parents we are just learning about ALL the kids shows. We can't stand the Purple Dino, So we like Tele-Tubbies and such. We discovered this show on the Disney Channel and Our child likes The Big Bear, Luna the Moon, and all the songs.

As for the Flaps, as all parent know or will find out, little kids will pull them off if not watched when they play with the books on their own

She can already find all the characters by name and loves to point to them as we say the names, since she still has a Caveman vocabulary.

I don't usually do reviews, but this book has survived for 3.5 yrs now which is unusual for the "lift the flap books". I have 16 mo twins and my little girl twin likes these kinds of books but finds them to be the "lift and rip and tear" books. Not so with this book - the flaps have actually survived her curiosity and destructiveness! And of course, we all love Bear, Tutter and his friends. A worthwhile purchase for your kids library.

I bought this book for my 15 month-old son, and he adores it. Of his many children's books this book is one of his favorites by far. The pages are easy for little hands to turn, it is a steardy board book, and the flaps are easy to lift and fun for small children. The illustrations are bright and colorful, so it keeps the attention span of little ones. He especailly loves to open the big flap at the end of the book that reveals Luna, the moon. If your child likes Bear in the Big Blue House and Lift- the-Flaps books, they will love this book.

My nephew's two year old daughter and eleven month old son absolutely love Bear and his friends. This book enchants them as much as the Bear DVDS they have.

My son is older now, but "we" grew up with Bear and his friends in the Big Blue House. The VHS tapes, the DVD's, the books and the stuffed animals were a big part of his childhood. The material is well written, and packaged in such a way that it entertains parents as well and the little ones.

It is impossible to purchase any of the books from the Bear in the Big Blue House in Australia. My son was extremely happy when he opened his package and found the book. He loves lifting the flaps to discover whats underneath them.

My son is just in LOVE with Bear...and anything to do with him. He is 14 months old and this is the perfect book for him. Lots of little flaps to open and look under, a short story to keep his attention and of course, bright, colorful photos of Bear and his friends! If your child loves Bear, they will love this book.

Okay, if your child loves Bear in the big blue house, like mine does, you can't go wrong with this book.
It is cute, entertaining and will keep the little bear fan happy for a while.
The colors are bright and the entire book is nice, truly a lot of things to see and to point out and hey you can start telling your own story with items you see in the book. Ask your child questions about the items and what bear or Ojo would do with them.
BUT...the flaps are really small. I had to wear them in for my little girl. They stick to the pages very tightly and are hard to open or see at first. Like everything else. A couple of times used and it all works much better. But for the eager reade/listener it is a bit frustriating at first.

I also find the story a bit short, but hey it is bear.. he rocks and we love him no matter what.

Enjoy it, it is a nice book
