FOUR HAPPY BEARS
ON FOUR SMALL CHAIRS.
Four chairs. Four adorable bears. All is well until Big Brown Bear shows up - what a stare! - and wants a seat. Can these clever bears put their heads together (among other things) and make space for one more? With endearing, expressive illustrations and a sustained rhyme in every line, here is a cozy tale that makes it clear there is room for all.
About the Author
Shirley Parenteau is the author of four other books about the Bears, as well as the middle-grade novels Ship of Dolls and Dolls of Hope. She lives in Elk Grove, California.
About the Illustrator
David Walker has illustrated many children's books, including the four previous Bears books and the Peep and Ducky books by David Martin. David Walker lives in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
Industry Reviews
--Kirkus Reviews
Rhyming text is simple enough for a preschool audience, and the lesson the bears model about sharing, though obvious, will be welcomed by many teachers and parents.
--Publishers Weekly
Parenteau's brief rhythmic text is bouncy and light, and ideal for reading aloud. Themes of sharing and compassion are introduced in developmentally appropriate, subtle ways, and the bears' discovery of their own resolution is a refreshing conclusion to the story. Walker's acrylic illustrations match the airy lyricism and mood of the text.
--School Library Journal
Along with the visual treat of watching softly colored bears and chairs on expanses of white pages, this book cleverly melds words and art.
