Bruchac's smooth yet distinctive reading voice, his excellent "animal" character voices, a sprinkling of songs, drumming, and rattles, and vivid stories make this a favorite of an almost 4 year old AND his 40-year-old mom -- especially the title story, which is moving without being sentimental. A very minor quibble is that Bruchac's voice occasionally "catches" as if he's stopping for breath at a line break. P.S. We liked this tape much better than the Navaho one in the series

The Boy Who Thought He Was A Teddy Bear is British children's author Jeanne Willis' original and utterly charming fairytale for young readers. This lighthearted story about a little boy's adventures with a family of teddy bears is wonderfully enhanced with the light and lively artwork of Susan Varley and enlivens this imaginative and memorable story.

Wonderful Book for Children! Written by the same author as the Also Wonderful 1980's book and tape series "Teddy Ruxpin" if you have young kids grab it up! And If you have kids of any age, pick up some Teddy Ruxpin items as well. The illustrations are wonderful as well.

This book is so funny.I want to make a bear like that.What I need is paint,paper,paintbursh,and animals.

A well-written book about the exciting summer the author had in Alaska. I enjoyed this book very much, and recommend it to anyone looking for a good read.

My son, 21 months now, has loved this book since about 6 months old. This book has been part of our bedtime routine since then. It has such brilliantlly colorful illustrations--Shari Halpern really outdid herself! The story is written well. It is not too long as to hold the attention of a toddler. The only suggestions I would have is to publish this book in the form of a board book!

From the wonderful early readers series "A Bug, A Bear, and A Boy Go To School" encourages early reading skills along with providing early geography, spatial relationship, cause and effect, perspective skills, and directional skills in a story of friendship between a bug, a bear, and a boy and their adventures of a school day. Very cleverly planned and written and wonderful choice for parents to buy their child learning to read or practicing their early reading skills. Highly recommend this book along with the entire A Bug, A Bear, and A Boy series. A+ teaching material for early readers 3 1/2 - 7 years old.

Bugly Bear's Hiccup Cure was a wonderful book that I had as a child. It is very funny as well. I hate to see it going out of print. Please encourage the publisher to reprint it. I lost my copy and never got it back. HELP!

Buttermilk Bear deals with racism, and how someone who's different may not be bad. Great pictures and a wonderful story.

This is one of our all time favorite children books. The pictures are darling. It was just the right length to keep my little ones' attention. We never tired of reading it. A truly delightsome book.
