Three books in one....

If you love bears, you will love the P.B. books. P.B Bears World of Words is a first word book, an activity book and a story book. The "story" is divided into 10 chapters. They include: Getting Dressed, In the Bathroom, In the Playroom, In the Backyard, In the Countryside, At the Seashore, In the Town, At the Playground, In the Kitchen and At Bedtime. Each picture is packed with details, activity questions can be used as a starting point for using the pictures as a leaning experience. Children will also develop their observations skills and will enjoy matching objects in the borders to those in the main pictures. This book almost reminds me of a story someone told me as a child where you knocked on a door and when it opened the room was filled with everything imaginable. Each double page spread is filled with items in a border and then in the middle, a picture of P.B. Bear in a fun scene. The first scene shows P.B. Bear in the middle of a room and he has to decide what color clothes he is going to wear. An umbrella is in the border, but there is also one on the floor in the main scene. "I have an idea for an adventure," says P.B. Bear. "But I've got a lot to do first." He then goes into the bathroom and brushes his teeth. "How many different brushes can you see?" This page will teach counting. P.B Bear continues to tell the story of what he will do next, moving into the playroom to find a hot air type balloon. he then goes out to the backyard and we see birds, butterflies, lettuce, daffodils and ants. As the balloon drifts above the countryside, a scene of animals and farm houses appears. The balloon travels towards the seashore and happens to land at the beach. There, P.B. Bear and his friends try to match up shapes with items at the seashore. Unfortunately, they have to leave the beach and head for the bustling street in the city. Fortunately, they land back in a playground. By this time, P.B. bear is just starving and heads for the kitchen to make some spaghetti. Children can think about what is hot, what is cold, what is sweet, etc. After a very busy day, P.B. Bear yawns and heads off to bed with his own bedtime story book. The best part about this book is matching up the items in the borders with items in the pictures. It will be a challenge for children to find all the items and will keep them amused for quite a while. ~The Rebecca Review
