K-3
Yogi Bear's Guide to the Great Outdoors series.
Illustrated by
Bryan Beach.
The cartoon bear teaches sidekick Boo Boo about bugs and insects in Jellystone Park, where they follow some ants to a "pic-a-nic" basket. Color photos accompany the ho-hum text, which is generally informative. With zero personality on the page, the characters lack the appeal of the original TV cartoon. A related activity and critical thinking questions are appended. Reading list. Glos., ind.
