Bear and Mouse count from one (sun, dragonfly) to five (ducks, crawdads) as they walk through the forest (Counts). In Colors, Bear and Mouse's woodland animal friends point out five different color-drenched scenes. Both books feature jaunty rhyming texts and inviting acrylic paintings that encourage preschoolers to join the fun. The content is slight, but the presentation and familiar characters are engaging. Review covers these titles: Bear Counts and Bear Sees Colors.
