Published by Scholastic in the early 00's there are several titles in this series. These books are for emergent readers. While my 3yo is nowhere near reading he loves the simple words, clear illustrations and there are multiple ways to read these books. The bears were able to be counted, bears were shown in their diverse habitats polar bear vs. panda, etc. a great series we'll revisit when he's ready to read.
