I had forgotten how much I enjoyed Little Bear books as a child, until I got out Little Bear to read to my three year old. I had forgotten how all four of the stories in each book flow together, and are all brought together in the last story. If you have children, I definitely recommend the Little Bear books!

I used to enjoy Little Bear when I was a child, and just pulled out Little Bear to read to my three year old. I was going to stop after only two of the stories, and sae the other two for later, but she made me read the whole thing, and it wqas cool how the fourth story, which was the last one, tied everything together. Good times sharing with my daughter, I'm glad I found this book the lat time I was at Powell's!

This was one of my favorite books when I was a little girl. I loved the illustrations and the sweet story about Little Bear and the love he has for his mother. All children should read this wonderful classic!
