Visitor for Bear

by Bonny Becker

Visitor for Bear Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Cheery persistence wears down a curmudgeonly bear in a wry comedy of manners that ends in a most unlikely friendship.

Bear is quite sure he doesn't like visitors. He even has a sign. So when a mouse taps on his door one day, Bear tells him to leave. But when Bear goes to the cupboard to get a bowl, there is the mouse — small and gray and bright-eyed. In this slapstick tale that begs to be read aloud, all Bear wants is to eat his breakfast in peace, but the mouse — who keeps popping up in the most unexpected places — just won't go away

Synopsis:

Cheery persistence wears down a curmudgeonly bear in a wry comedy of manners that ends in a most unlikely friendship. Full color.

Delightful story and beautiful, expressive illustrations. It's sweet, gentle and funny, and tells a story about friendship and manners. It's a bit over the head of my almost two-year-old, but he and I both love it.
