Review
Frida,the elephant,loves to draw. Her friend, Bear,enjoys drawing as well. But one day Bear could not think of anything to draw. Frida draws a shape and tells Bear to turn the shape into something. And so begins their creative and imaginative day. They each take turns making shapes, squiggles and bits of collage - and the other turns each shape, squiggle and bit into a drawing. Frida and Bear love this game - and play it every day. The reader is invited to look at their drawings - and then play the game. This title should spur some imaginative play at home, at storytime and in the classroom.
