The Little Crooked Bookshelf

 

WHERE BEAR? 
by Sophy Henn

This week's pick is from Cottager Kara LaReau.
 
What it's all about...
Once there was a bear cub, who lived with a little boy. But when the bear grows too big and bearish, he and the boy must find him a new place to live. Bear needs a new home, but where?

Why it's on the Little Crooked Bookshelf...
A sweet story of friendship, growing up, and staying in touch across the miles, written and illustrated by newcomer Sophy Henn.

Our favorite lines...
So the bear was happy./And the boy was happy./And they stayed the very best of friends…/…chit-chattering on the phone all the time.

Our favorite illustration...


 
Why kids will love it...
With fun, repetitive text and simple, bold, illustrations, it’s almost too cute to bear!

Why grown-ups will love it...
A lovely read-aloud, and a celebration of friendships both real and imaginary.
