Review
This is the seventh book in the bear series. Spring is here with all the blossoming trees and the bears decide to have a picnic and fly their kites. As Big bear anticipates eating the bread he just slathered with honey, the wind whips it out of his hand and blows the bears with their kites up over the trees. Big Bear must leave his treat to gather the air-borne bears and bring them to safety. Most of the rhyming couplets work although a few are forced. Use this story about cuddly bears during a spring-themed story time.
