The Bear in the Book

The Bear in the Book by Kate Banks

Summary: At the end fo the day a little boy falls asleep as his mama reads about a bear hibernating.

My Thoughts: Such a sweet and unique story about bedtime reading with a little boy and his mama!  The bedtime routine will be familiar to young children, as the little boy and his mama settle in to read a book about a bear that is getting ready to hibernate for the winter.  The focus is the interaction between the readers and the book and even the bear.  Beautiful paintings bring the story to life!
