Review
Lots of facts about bears are sandwiched between pages covered with adorable illustrations of three types of bears. Young readers seeking information or just interested in bears will find this book suits their needs. The print is large and easy to read, the illustrations are sharp as well as detailed, and the storyline holds its own. Designed as signs are several informational sentences that help to explain the eating habits, body functions, and behavioral habits of bears. Speech bubbles add to the graphic charm while a map and back matter expand the informational content in this attractive and interesting non-fiction picture book.
Add this to primary school collections and watch for the other titles in the series.
