My Favorite Bear

(4) PS A mother bear offers a simple rhyming lullaby to her cub, describing the various bears that he may meet on his journey once he's grown. The illustrations are warm and inviting, but the rhymes feel forced at times ("There are shy bears, sticky bears, / and bears feeling lazy, / white bears, / black bears, / and bears sniffing daisies"). At book's end, Gabriel presents basic facts about the eight species of bear.
