Why read it?
1 author picked Bears as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Carney’s book is part of the National Geographic Kids series, and is meant for independent, fluent readers.
So it’s for kids who are older than those who might read my bear book and the other books on my list. Still, Carney’s book is well-organized, interesting, and definitely worth a read.
If your cubs enjoy this one, consider trying another one in this National Geographic series—Ink!—by Stephanie Drimmer. After watching (aka sobbing my way through) the film My Octopus Teacher, I read Ink! to learn more about Octopuses.
From Joan's list on bears with funny facts and friendship.
