I buy a book each month for my granddaughter. This is the recent one. She tells me that it's a funny story about poor daddy bear trying to get a sleep.
CLASSIC STORYTIME READ ALOUD
A great read aloud for Storytime, where children can join in with Mr. Bear, as he tries to find a place to sleep. We are on the 3rd generation of children loving this story. A classic!
Sehr schönes Buch
Ist schon Jahre her, aber die Kinder haben das Buch geliebt. Es gibt viel zu entdecken und die Grafiken sind liebevoll gestaltet. Wir haben das Buch immer wieder lesen müssen. Das Thema, dass es manchmal schwierig ist Ruhe zu finden/zur Ruhe zu kommen ist schön dargestellt. Buch ist auch für deutsche Kinder zu empfehlen - man verdirbt sie dann zumindest nicht mit falschem Englisch ;-).weitere schöne englische (Klein-)Kinderbücher:- Do You Want to Be My Friend? (Eric Carle)- 1,2,3 to the Zoo (Eric Carle)- Today is Monday (Eric Carle)- The Pig in the Pond (Martin Waddell)- Ten in the Bed (Penny Dale)- Mouse Paint (Ellen Stoll Walsh)- Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? (Bill Martin, Eric Carle)- The Very Busy Spider: Miniature Edition (Eric Carle)
It is a great story for group discussion even with the youngest child ...
This big book was so worth the wait. Everyone can't wait to see what Mr. Bear will do next. It is a great story for group discussion even with the youngest child being able to participate. A+++

Love it
A lovely bedtime read. My baby loves it n so do I :)
