Are yo-o-u--u--u-u a Scaredy-Bear? 4 out of 5 stars.
2 of 8 people found this review helpful.

There's nothing like family in time of storms, the dark, whatever comes along. It's good to have a father who can show bravery and fear. It's good to have a sensible mother. It's good to have a stuffed bunny to sleep with.

The reader gets all of these and more in "The Bears in the Bed and the Great BIG Storm," written by Paul Bright and illustrated by Jane Chapman. It's not a five-star book, but a good, solid four stars, especially for little ones with stormy-night issues.

Not only that, but the details in the illustrations change according to which angle the scene is shown. Things are added, removed, changed around. I didn't notice that until this review. Children see these things that adults skim over, thinking oh well, this is just a simple children's book. One thing never to take for granted is the cleverness of illustrators.

The story is the usual (but how comforting!): The storm is scary, so go sleep with Mom and Dad in the security of their care. Dad takes them in, one by one, assuring each in turn that there are no monsters. Then a Rat-a Tat-Tat comes at their door and he is fearful of monsters. Why, it's just Mr. Moose with his great big antlers shadowing against the lightning. His house has blown away and he, too, seeks safety from the storm.

There are so many wonderful lessons about safety and security and generosity of spirit and home in this slightly over-sized book! This is a book that will bear reading over and over again (catch my pun?).

My three year old loves this. Easy, quick bedtime book.

One thing that went wrong 4 out of 5 stars.

(on behalf of my 6 year old son). I like this book because nothing went wrong except one thing, and it was when bear said, "Hello" but it echoed. I recommend this book because it is a pretty good beginner book.

Brings Back Memories!!! 5 out of 5 stars.

This is the best book ever... My mother used to read this book to me at bedtime every night and I loved it so much. It was also one of the first books I learned to read on my own. It is great that I could find it on here. I gave the one I had when I was little to my nephew. I am going to purchase this one for myself and for the friends of mine who already have children...This will definitely be on my childrens' shelves when I plan to start a family. A Great and simple read that teaches children to appreciate the little things..
Thanks for reading...

Grizzwold can live with me! 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Grizzwold was a good book written by Syd Hoff. The story was about a huge bear named Grizzwold. He lived in the forest. The men came and cut down all the trees for paper. Grizzwold looked in the city zoo and circus. He found his home in the national park. I recommend this book because it is funny and sad. My favorite part was when Grizzwold went to the dance. The people thought he was wearing a costume. I was happy when he found a home.

Grizzwold 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This story is adout a bear Grizzwold. He was bigger than other bears. Other bears could fit in their caves, but Grizzlywold couldn't fit in his cave. So he slept outside by himself. He didn't mind. He had a nice coat of fur to keep him warm. I hope that people like it. I thought it was a great book.

grizzwold is my god, i would worship him if it were possible 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Grizzwold was one of my favourite books as a child, and upon rereading it, it is easy to see why. It's not a difficult or a condescending book, and the adventures of this bear are literally amazing. I would be proud to be his friend, if such a thing were possible.
Also, another reason for my love is that he has almost the same name as me, and for years (until I knew better) I thought the book was written about me, albeit as an anthromorpothic bear.
I must dig this out again.

Editorial Review:

Grizzwold the lovable bear is having a tough time finding somewhere to live. He's too big for most places, and too clumsy for others. He's not even any good as a live bearskin rug! Will Grizzwold ever find a home that's just right?

Excellent book! 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This is the perfect toddler book. I got it from the library for a homeschool lesson, and my daughter loved it so much I'm going to buy our own copy. The images are colorful and soft, with lots to look at. The story (or poetry) is very simple and short. I like how, even though the story centers around baby Jesse and his mom, the dad is involved also. The story is very warm, with obvious affection shown for Jesse by his parents.

Editorial Review:

What does a little bear wear while he romps through a bright and sunny day? In the morning, his pants that dance, and the sun on his legs that run. At lunchtime, celery crunch and sprouts in a bunch, and juice from a pear and rice in his hair. And at night, his pjs with feet and face on the seat, and sleep in his eyes and stars in the skies, as he dreams of the fun he'll have tomorrow.

In lilting verse and exuberant paintings, the first of Nancy White Carlstrom's and Bruce Degen's celebrated Jesse Bear books creates a special day not only for Jesse Bear, but for young children everywhere.

Editorial Review:

When Papa learns the cubs are going out for soccer, he's confounded. Whoever heard of a game where you can't even pick up the ball? Yes, Papa's an old-fashioned bat-and-ball-and-mitt sort of bear...until the cubs drag him kicking and screaming into the new generation and teach him the singular pleasures of that black-and-white ball. With their usual perceptive insights, the Berenstains also deal with issues like team - work, practice, and boys and girls playing together.

The Berenstain Bears In The Dark 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

This book is about brother bear and sister bear going to the library to get some books. When they arrived home it was reading time and brother bear scared sister bear reading her his scary book he checked out. That night sister bear couldn't fall asleep because she was scared so papa bear gave her a nightlight. That helped her fall asleep and she wasn't scared of the dark anymore. The lesson this book teaches is to not be afraid of the dark. It's a good book and I recommend it for children ages 3-10.

A review of The IN THE DARK 4 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

I think this book is a pretty good book for people that like to read to young children, or just for anytime reading. This book features all of our favorite Berenstain Bears characters. Mama bear, Papa bear, Brother and Sister bear all play important parts in this book. In it, sister is read a scary book by brother and then is afraid of the dark, but will the scarer become the scaree?

Editorial Review:

After a scary bedtime story, Sister Bear is too frightened of the dark to shut her eyes. "Sound psychological advice and a night light help Sister conquer her fears. Children will empathize with Sister Bear in this well-written story."--School Library Journal.

Long Search Finally Ends 5 out of 5 stars.
10 of 10 people found this review helpful.

I must have read this Little Golden Book book to my daughter over 1000 times. She absolutely loved it as a child. Even though she had memorized the words she insisted on having it read to her every night and she caught me every time I tried to turn two pages at once.

For several years, she had unsuccessfully searched for this book so she could read it to her two sons aged 1 and 3. I was thrilled to see that it was recently re-published and available on Amazon[.com].

The story line involves a baby bear who hides on his father's shoulders when it is time for him to go to bed. The father bear "searches" all over the house for "little bear" who is nowhere to be found. At long last, the father bear looks in a mirror and discovers "little bear" who is perched on his shoulders. A simple story, but one which absolutely fascinated my daughter.

Editorial Review:

It is time for Little Bear to go to bed. But where can he be? Father Bear searches all over the house. Little ones will enjoy being in on the joke as they look at Richard Scarry's colorful pictures. This Little Golden Book Classic is now back in print for a new generation of readers to enjoy.

My daughter got this book for her first Christmas. I put it on the shelf & forgot about it until she was about 1 when she discovered it for herself. In the almost full year since then, a day has not gone by when this book has not been read -- generally, numerous times (& I'm not sick of it yet). Thankfully I've been able to memorize it -- if she's in the car and cranky, simply reciting the book will calm her down. Such is the power of this great book. She's managed to tear pages but we just tape it together and read it again the next day. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a fun, simple book for their little one.

Great Book!! 5 out of 5 stars.

A wonderful book with an unusual and important message 5 out of 5 stars.
10 of 10 people found this review helpful.

I loved this book and so did my son. It is SO hard to find children's books that say that it's okay to be behaviorally a little different. So many books say it's okay to be different in other ways, but there is not much out there for the child that might be not ready to try new things as eagerly as their peers. Most books seem to tell them to "go ahead, try it, in the end it will be great" but this book admits that Edward was just plain not ready for an overnight, and that being at home was much happier for him. I think Rosemary Wells is one of the few authors out there for young children that truly understands them.

"He is Ready for Cinnamon Toast, Said Edward's Mother" 5 out of 5 stars.

In this charming story featuring Rosemary Wells's character Edward the Unready.

In this story, Edward finds himself unready for an overnight sleepover. He goes over to play at his friend Anthony's house, but a major snowstorm hits, and it's said that he'll have to stay overnight. Anthony's family does everything to help him out, but Edward still isn't ready. So they go to heroic efforts to get them home.

This story is great. It reminds me of a "Dragon Tales" story in which Cassie wasn't ready for an overnight sleepover either. She ended up doing a "half-sleepover."

Editorial Review:

Edward's parents tell him that because of the snow he will have to stay overnight with his friend Anthony, but Edward finds this overwhelming.
