Reviews

PreSchool-Grade 2-In One Saturday Morning, readers meet a loving family of bears and follow them through their busy day. Baker's delightful story features a typical family dealing with the wants and needs of four youngsters at different ages and stages. Duke's watercolor-and-pen illustrations are filled with humor and will delight children. Viewers can't help but notice the numerous pictures featuring family members reading amid the calm and chaos. Though written for beginning readers, it will be a toss up as to who enjoys the book more-kids or parents. This is a winner; buy several copies.

Gr. 1-3. From Mama Bear's attempts to have a few quiet minutes to herself to Papa Bear's spaghetti lunch with the kids, the busy Saturday activities of each member of the Bear family are featured in six easy-to-read chapters. Baker's bears are a close-knit family, but the smaller bears have a hard time being heard and must learn to stand up for themselves. Beginning readers will enjoy the humor of familiar family situations and appreciate the happy solutions that inevitably follow each mishap. Duke's bright watercolors, which grace each page, enhance the warmth and bustle of the story. Chris Sherman
