Baby Bear, Baby Bear, What Do You See? (My First Reader)

Baby Bear, Baby Bear, What Do You See? completes the bear book beginning reader series in an unbearably adorable fashion. Now, children can read all four Brown Bear and Friends books on their own in this special format.

With Eric Carle's iconic art, Bill Martin Jr.'s poetic text, and the important pre-reading concepts of rhyme, rhythm, and repetition, these picture books have long been used as beginning readers. The new 6 x 9 trim and classic beginning reader layout create a more "grown up" version for children to read by themselves.

In this early reader edition, the fun continues even after the story ends! Complete with a letter from master educator Laura Robb, and interactive activities for children to enjoy, Baby Bear, Baby Bear, What Do You See? will foster a lifelong love for books in even the most reluctant readers.

Eric Carle (1929-2021) was one of America’s leading children’s book illustrators and authors. Author of more than seventy books, his picture book career started when Bill Martin Jr invited him to create the illustrations for Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? That book went on to sell millions of copies worldwide and Eric soon began writing and illustrating his own books, eventually creating the bestselling classic The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Born in the United States, Eric also spent many of his early years in Germany where he studied typography and graphic art at the Academy of Applied Art in Stuttgart.

Carle was the recipient of many honors including the American Library Association’s Children’s Literature Legacy Award and the Original Art Lifetime Achievement Award from the Society of Illustrators. In addition to writing and illustrating books of his own, he also collaborated on several others, including Bill Martin Jr's Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear?, Isaac Bashevis Singer’s Why Noah Chose the Dove, and the Eric Carle and Friends’ What’s Your Favorite picture book series. The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art, which Carle and his wife Bobbie founded, opened in Amherst, Massachusetts in 2002.
