Review
Illustrations are very large, bright and homey looking. This is a story about a girl and bear friendship. Lolly is about to start school for the first time and she and her friend, Bear go clothes shopping and try on several types of outfits til they find the right school outfit. On the day they head off to school for the first day they decide to take a shortcut but fall into a small river. Bear saves his friend Lolly but in the process they lose all of their new school supplies to the forest creatures who carry them off. They realize though they have lost everything they still have each other. This is a must have book for a library first day of school collection.
Overall Book Score: very good
