Customer Reviews

Pre-schoolers can easily identify with the little bear!

A little toy bear listens as "his" little boy is read a storybook every night. The little bear wants to try to read a book on his own and learn the magic of the words but finds he needs to learn all his ABC's to spell out words. His friend, a toy tiger helps guide him in making small words from ABC blocks.......This book is great for my 3 1/2 yr. old and all pre-schoolers who are intrigued with books and pretend to read them-they will certainly identify with the little bear as he struggles to do same. Highly recommend! This is a jewel of a little book! Savannah
