This Bear's Birthday

(3) PS Illustrated by Lorna Hussey. On his birthday, Bear discovers things he can now do "all by himself" (albeit with a little help), but he's disappointed he can't put fallen leaves back on the tree. Then he figures out an alternative: rake the leaves so partygoers can jump in them. Bear's growing independence will likely resonate with young readers. Amiable watercolor and graphite illustrations enhance the story's gentle humor.
