Sweet stories, beautiful illustrations

A holiday favorite of my grandchildren. Fair price and fast shipping!

Adorable and perfect for young readers! Little Bear is a timeless classic that captures the imagination with its gentle stories and charming illustrations. The language is simple and easy for beginners, making it ideal for children who are just learning to read. My child loved following along with Little Bear’s adventures, and the stories sparked fun conversations about friendship, curiosity, and family. The book is well-made, with durable pages that hold up to repeated reading. This is a wonderful addition to any child’s bookshelf and a great way to encourage early literacy. Highly recommend!

This is my go-to book for teaching beginning readers. It's interesting and gently humorous, and the pictures are charming -- but a lot of books have those qualities. What makes this book (and the other Little Bear books) so great is that the words are almost all common words a reader is likely to encounter often, they're almost all easy words that can be sounded out, and there's a fair amount of repetition with slight variations. Because of this, the child's effort and success in reading one word are likely to pay off in reading that same word or a similar word later on the page or one the next page. The child quickly starts to feel familiar with some words, and consequently more and more confident and optimistic about being able to read. This is especially valuable if the child has fallen behind and is discouraged. I find that after reading one or a few of these books, children are able to progress to well-written books at level 2 such as Frog and Toad. This is not the case with all so-called "beginner" books. Some of them have charming pictures and only a few words per page but those words are too hard for most beginners to sound out and aren't particularly common words, so having learned that word is of limited use when the child tries to read the next word (which is also often neither easy nor extremely common). Such books are great for adults to read TO kids, and for kids to pretend to read once they've memorized the words, but aren't very helpful for teaching and reinforcing the building blocks of reading. The Little Bear books do just that in an enjoyable way. I'm so grateful for them!

Who doesn't love Little Bear? Such a sweet book series.

This little bear book is absolutely darling. It is good quality and has a good story. It also goes along with Logic of English curriculum that I use.

Appropriate for my first grader. She does well reading it and is able to tell me about the story. The artwork is also appropriate.

Hatte das Bich als Kind von unseren amerikanischen Freunden geschenkt bekommen. Es ist einfach toll und bereitet jetzt einem Kind erneut totalen Spaß.

This book is a delight to read to very young children, and lovely for them to read themselves later on. The stories are warm and reassuring, whether showing Mother Bear's love for Little Bear, or Little Bear making friends, and even venturing into the world, then coming safely home. The illustrations by Maurice Sendak [Where the Wild things are] are a lovely blend of naturalism and fantasy.

Makes for a good self read book between kids aged 5-7
