Another hilarious book about Osito

This book is sort of the nicer twin to the book "Un Cuento de Oso" by the same author. In "Cuento," Osito goes through the forest encountering threatening things and uses his trusty pencil to draw his way out of danger. In this book, Osito is walking in the jungle and encounters potentially scary animals (gorilla, crocodile, lion, elephant) and draws things to make them happy. While "Cuento" is a little subversive, "Libro" is just plain fun. The drawings are rich and hilarious, and the ending is cute.My only complaint is that I thought this book would be a board book, and it's not. It's hardback, but with paper pages, so I'm worried that my 11-month-old will destroy it. But he loves it already, so I don't have the heart to put it on the shelf until he's older.

The little bear magic.

Great book to little children. The important thing is that it uses few sentences and let the kid to told and retold the storie focusing on the richness of the drawings, and common knowledge of the stories that cross in the litle bear path. I truly recommend it.
