Customer Reviews

Ginger Bear, Children's book

Ginger BearAuthor's illustrations are fresh, amusing,and pleasing to children. Good story too. Enjoyed by many grandchildren.

Ginger Bear is a gem.

My four and six year old love this book. We picked it up from the library and it became an instant classic. It is on my "to buy" list. For my four year old it is a fun and imaginative story of a gingerbread bear that escapes being eaten by his maker, Horace. My six year old and I enjoy the humor and irony. My favorite line, "Bongo the dog loved cookies too (but not in a way that is particulary good for cookies)." The illustrations are great too.

Can the short-lived cookie friends survive?

Mini Grey's GINGER BEAR stars a gingerbread bear with a mind of his own. Ginger Bear loves to whip up cookie friends who perform circus acts and thwart a dangerous dog who loves cookies. Can the short-lived cookie friends survive?

my 6-year-old likes this one

We are borrowing this from the library and my daughter wants me to read it to her over and over again. The story is very cute. At first you think it's about Horace, a little boy who has made a delicious cookie, but then it takes a twist and you enter the world of the cookie. The artwork is really great. This author can do it all. I recommend this one.
