ONE Very Big Bear

(3) PS Illustrated by Olivier Philipponneau & Raphaële Enjary. The eponymous ONE polar bear laments his big size, only to have a succession of animals stand atop one another to show that they can be just as big. This French counting book ends with a dark twist (involving SIX sardines) that promises to deliver one very big laugh. The spare, striking illustrations use a limited palette of white, black, and aquamarine.
