Book condition was incorrect

I was very disappointed to receive this book that was marked “in very good condition” only to find it had black mold under the library cover. I had to throw it away.

Two boys' review: One of Papa's favorites for bedtime reading

This book is another great addition to the Little Bear series (see my other reviews). Father Bear goes on a fishing trip and his Little Bear wonders what he may catch...an octopus, a whale, maybe a mermaid. Perfect for young readers and a great bedtime book (with four interwoven stories inside, so you can stop if your audience gets sleepy). My sons can relate to Little Bear and his imagination. The stories are easier to follow yet entertaining enough to support multiple readings.

Cute Story

My Son read this book to me. This is an easy one for him but we are working on reading out loud. He needs to practice reading with the breaks in the right place. It is a cute story about Little bear and his father. It is an I Can Read book that I would recommend for K-2nd grade.

Father Bear Comes Home

There are 4 different stories in this book. My favorite was Little Bear's Mermaid. I liked when Little Bear saw the mermaid when his mom and dad were sleeping. I also liked when Little Bear went fishing. Other kids will like this book because it has many stories in it.

Only the best

The Little Bear saga are truly classic. From the artwork and storylines you think you are reading a Victorian era storybook. No your grandmother didn't read these stories to you. Soon enough we will be reading them to our grandchildren. Buy the hardback versions, your grandkids will love them.

It is about a bear

I loved this book. I Could read it over and over and never get bored. Ilike all of the Little bear books.They let me use my imagination. Just keep on writing more,okay!
