When goldfish and delicious treats start disappearing, it is presumed that the markings left at the scene are Blackboard Bear's footprints, so Anthony must find a way to prove him innocent of the crimes so that no harm comes to his furry friend.

Ages 3-6. Blackboard Bear steps off a chalkboard and into children's hearts once again in a new story. This time Anthony's friends accuse Bear of stealing goldfish from a pond, snatching honey from a high windowsill, and devouring blueberries from a garden. Anthony staunchly defends his animal friend, until Bear sheepishly and privately confesses his guilt. To replace the losses, Bear makes chalk drawings of the pilfered treats, lifts the well-drawn replicas from the blackboard, and delivers them to the wronged friends. Alexander's spare text conveys an amazing amount of sentiment in very few words, and it's easy to see Bear's emotions in the understated yet eloquent pictures. Softly rendered in colored pencils and watercolor, the expressive artwork is a charming companion to the affectionately delivered messages about respecting others' property and about devoted friendship.

A classic comes out of hibernation and an illustrated bear comes to life in Martha Alexander's We're in Big Trouble, Blackboard Bear (1980). In this addition to the newly reillustrated, reissued series, the boy must teach his chalk-drawn bear a lesson when it confesses to sneaking out at night to steal blueberries, a jar of honey and goldfish from the local children.
