Synopsis
A picnic seems like an easy enough idea, but not if you have to chaperone two naughty bear cubs, a worrying cat, and a bull! When grandfather bear sets out the picnic he has so lovingly packed and carried, he soon finds himself having to decide how to save not only his lunch, but also his precious grandchildren, from the attention of a marauding bull. Or does he? Just have another look at those pictures! This a delightful, uproariously funny picture book in which words and pictures do not always tell the same story - but both have a very happy ending.

From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 1–Grandpa Bear from No Trouble at All (Bloomsbury, 2002) is back with his two grandcubs, and they are going on a picnic. While he relates his version of the events of the day, the pictures tell a different tale. Those who watch closely will get the real story of why a bull seems to be following them. Though nothing goes according to plan, the playful cubs and their oblivious elder have a great day with plenty of fun. Taylor's soft watercolor palette and curvy lines make for cuddly characters–even the "nasty old bull" looks huggable. The interplay between the words and illustrations in this sweet book will keep children laughing straight through to the end.–Julie Roach, Malden Public Library, MA
