Bear Snores On

One by one, a whole host of different animals and birds find their way out of the cold and into Bear's cave to warm up. But even after the tea has been brewed and the corn has been popped, Bear just snores on!

See what happens when he finally wakes up and finds his cave full of uninvited guests -- all of them having a party without him!

Summary: Great Book! Mom likes it too.
Comment: I got this for my 3 y/o. We love the book. Fun to read, a very cute story and the pictures are pretty good. Aside from just entertaining there is a little bit of learning too- a couple of somewhat uncommon animals are 'featured'. It's in very heavy rotation in our house and I actually don't mind that fact. I highly recommend it for 2.5 and up (probably to at least 5?..)

Summary: My absolute favorite children's book!!!
Comment: My son is now seven months old, and being that his mom is an avid reader, he has quite the extensive personal library already. Without question Karma Wilson's Bear Snores On is my very favorite of all the books to read on my kid's shelves (along with Bear Wants More). The rhymes, cadences, and repetition are nothing short of perfect--and the illustrations are fabulous as well. My son loves when I read the dialogues in different voices. For a child so young, a book of this length usually fails to hold interest by the half way point, but "the Bear books" are the exception to the rule.
Hands down this book is the most fun to read and I do so at least three or four times a week, without getting sick of it. This is sure to be a favorite for some time to come and if I could recommend one book to new parents, it would be this one. Highly recommended.

Summary: LOVE IT!!!
Comment: I have a 4 year old and a 2.5 year old, and this is their FAVORITE book. I also love it, it is so fun to read it to them. I get really into the emotion of the book and it's so fun to watch their faces as I read. This book is truly a joy and is a must-have for any child's library.

Summary: Fantastic!
Comment: I love this book, and my 21-month-old does too! We checked it out from the library, but I'm tempted to purchase my own copy. I love the story, which is about how one by one, some little woodland creatures stumble upon a cozy cave in which a bear is snoozing. As more and more little animals gather there, their plan to warm themselves turns into a party with tea, popcorn, honey nuts, and other assorted goodies. All of this goes on while the bear is still sleeping. A fleck of pepper meant for a stew causes a sneeze that wakes up the bear, and the bear's growly anger belies some hurt feelings... but the animals tell him, "Hey! It's OK! We can pop more corn and brew more tea!"

I love the rhyme and the alliteration... this book is actually fun to read aloud to my son. And the illustrations are precious!

Summary: I don't mind reading it over and over!!!!
Comment: Lets face it when you are reading to a child under 2 who in some cases is difficult to pin down for a book, its nice to find one they will sit through that you enjoy reading over and over again. I have all kinds of voices for the characters now and if its a good thing for a book to be a little worn out, than trust me our copy looks loved! I started reading this before my son could even sit up and I hope to continue until he is tired of it. It would be one of my top 3 books and I used to be a pre-school teacher so I know tons of books for this age group. Happy reading.
