Review
“A smiling, dot-eyed brown bear cub narrates its life over the course of a year . . . Tracy adds endearing, sensorial touches . . . Farrell contributes cheery, engaging art rendered in gouache, colored pencil, ink, and digital mixed media to this lightly informative, bear-centered board book.”―Publishers Weekly, starred review
“The bear’s breezy, childlike narration is informative . . . Laced throughout the story are tender turns of phrase that make the narrative more intimate . . . Farrell’s loose, languid, full-bleed illustrations appear airy and simple and create a warm and homey feel . . . Bear-y sweet.”―Kirkus Reviews

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet illustrations loved by so many children
I’ve given this book to several youngsters in my life and they are all delighted by the story, but especially by the illustrations. Such a sweet read!
5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant board books for toddler
These books are so charming. The language and pictures are beautiful. Engaging to read and educational. Also love that it’s a board book and a nice size. We have a kit story aswell and they are our fave books
4.0 out of 5 stars Very cute and informative book
I gave this order 4 stars because Bolo does not do a great job shipping books. The book itself is great but because it was loose in the box, there was some rough places along the edge of the book.
5.0 out of 5 stars We love this book!!
This book has become a fan fave for my 2 year old niece - she insists on reading it every night! The colorful paintings are vivid and exciting for a little one’s eyes.
