A Bedtime for Bear by Kady MacDonald Denton, Bonny Becker
5.0
Age: 4-7
Media: Watercolor
Award: E. B. Read Aloud
Bear receives Mouse, an unexpected visitor, for the night and Bear's grouchy, controlling attitude has trouble adjusting to the night time noises of Mouse. When Bear hears an unfamiliar noise, it is Mouse who checks under the bed, checks behind the curtains, and listens to a story to comfort Bear. A lovely friendship between two unlikely pals.
Wonderful to read aloud, especially with the various sized words to express loudness or softness which accompany the pictures. The reliance of Bear on Mouse is cute, especially when Bear tries to play it off like Mouse is the scared one, which Mouse easily goes along with.
