A book that makes both parents and kids laugh

My 3 year old and I both love reading this book. The stories are funny situations that most kids get into at one time or another. Great for the 2-4 age range. Dog and Bear: Two's Company is wonderful too. I also recommend Mo Willems books which similarly portray humorous situations with lovable animal characters. Pigeon Finds a Hot Dog!, The

Touching and funny book

I am always on the look-out for children's books that make ME laugh - if by some chance THIS is the book that my child will want me to read 5 million times a day, then I won't have the urge to throw it out of the window at an opportune moment! It is a loving, sweet and subtle funny book, which I would definitely recommend.

This is a great book

The quality and style of the artist's work in this book was amazingly awesome. I think that the characters in Dog and Bear are really great and I wish that there were more Dog and Bear books. They remind me of feelings that I have sometimes and I've also got a best friend like dog so I understand how bear feels. I really like this book a lot.

A perfect book for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and early readers

The amazing thing about this book is that it manages to capture the essence of true friendship very quickly and with so few words. With a child's sensibilities in mind, Seeger creates an instant classic. Buy this book along with Frog and Toad and George and Martha.

An instant classic

I am a first grade teacher and my class was so enamored with this book that I promised them that I would leave a review on behalf of all the children. Dog and Bear are two characters who will, without a doubt be instant classics, right along with Frog and Toad and George and Martha. They are endearing and adorable and were instantly loved by all from the first reading on. Seeger does a superb job of creating characters to whom children can relate and love. To Ms. Seeger: Félicitations! Travail bien fait!
