Again!

Baby Bear

by john-prater

One warm sunny day a little voice says, "Play with me," and Grandbear wakes up to entertain Baby Bear. Whatever activity they choose, Baby Bear never tires of doing the same things over and over again, whether it's building with bricks or stamping and stomping on sandcastles. Eventually, Grandbear needs a lie down in his hammock, and snuggles up with Baby Bear to read a story. As Baby Bear hugs him it's Grandbear's turn to murmer, "Again, again..."

Charming story about a bear and his grandad in the garden. Little bear has more energy and in the end grandad persuades him to have a story and a cuddle in the hammock.

My five-year-old son picked this book out from the library today.

This book was perhaps a little young for my son, but it does so perfectly capture the essence of a toddler or a preschooler. Clever Grand-Bear for using Baby Bear energy and desire to repeat a task in a useful way. That is the secret to preserving your sanity. That, and naps.

Sweet ending to this book - and so much like little kids! The kids loved saying "AGAIN!" repeatedly... :)

This was adorable! I loved the illustrations and even in the spanish version, I could understand what was happening!

[Lindsay]

What parent or grandparent of a toddler can't relate to this?!

[Sandi Roe]

Great story of Baby Bear and Grand Bear. Children love to say "Again!" Grand Bear tires of the various games before Baby Bear, but there is a lot of love between the two.
