From Booklist

Reviewed with Jean Marzollo's Shanna's Bear Hunt

PreS-Gr. 1. Both of these titles in the Shanna's First Readers series combine inviting full-color illustrations with text that's full of dialogue, rhythm, and repetition that will draw in early readers. In Shanna's Bear Hunt, Shanna, a large-eyed, African American girl, plays hide-and-seek with her younger brother and their animal friends. In Shanna's Hip, Hop, Hooray! the characters create the Shanna Show, full of rhyming, clapping, tapping, and rapping, as each one takes the stage to perform. An introductory note includes strategies to help adults guide new readers, and each exuberant story closes with a simple activity for children. Karen Hutt
