About this title

Synopsis

A simple explanation of what bears look like, how they hunt, what they eat, how they sleep during the winter, and how their cubs are born and raised.

From School Library Journal

Gr 1-3-Despite the melodramatic titles, Berger approaches these animals with judicious equanimity, providing a relatively large amount of information in a strictly limited physical configuration. Both titles are heavily larded with color photos and neither has an index, though clear chapter headings (e.g., "What Do Bears Eat?") make information retrieval relatively painless. Purists may flinch at the use of such nonscientific terms as "tummies" or the describing of pilot fish as "friends," but most of the factual material is couched in more formal language. Unfamiliar terms are defined in the text, and a pronunciation guide accompanies each definition. All in all, useful, tidy titles on stirring subjects, designed to entice general readers and provide a touch of spice in the classroom.-Patricia Manning, formerly at Eastchester Public Library, NY
