Wherever Mimi goes, Bear is sure to be there―whether she is ice-skating, having fancy tea with the queen, or making a scary snow monster. But when Bear gets lost, poor Mimi is heartbroken. Luckily, the snow melts and Mimi and Bear are reunited.

Janee Trasler's spare text and utterly adorable artwork will resonate with anyone who has ever lost a beloved toy.

About this title

About the Author:

Janee Trasler has written and/or illustrated many picture books for children. She lives in Grapevine, Texas, with her husband, two dogs, two guinea pigs, and a pile of puppets.

From School Library Journal:

PreS—Mimi, a rabbit, spends all day playing in the snow with her toy bear. When it is time to go inside, Bear is nowhere to be found. Sad and lonely, Mimi goes in without him. When she awakes, she is determined to find her faithful friend. As she ventures outside, she realizes that the snow has disappeared; fortunately, Bear has not. Children will relate to this special friendship. Mimi's face depicts various expressions young children will be able to understand. Background illustrations are done in muted colors to represent the landscape and cold weather. Mimi and her beloved bear, however, are depicted in vibrant colors, making them stand out on the page. A sweet, charming story that young children will enjoy.—Megan McGinnis, Sachem Public Library, Holbrook, NY
