Guess Who's Coming, Jesse Bear

(4) PS Illustrated by Bruce Degen. Published spring 1998. Anxious about Cousin Sara Bear's upcoming visit, Jesse Bear imagines spending time with this older, bossy, bullying relative will be no fun at all. A week together, however, makes for great adventures and fast friendships. Degen's trademark pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations lend energy to the text, which, despite its doggerel verse, conveys a genuine sense of the young child's world.
