Book description
Koala is NOT a bear! (Or is he?) Find out why Koala is so mad in this new, irresistibly funny picture book from Aaron Blabey, the bestselling creator of Pig the Pug!
"G'day, my name is Warren and I've got something to share... Just because I'm furry DOESN'T MEAN THAT…Why read it?
1 author picked Don't Call Me Bear! as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I completely identify with the main character (a koala), who is misunderstood and misidentified as a bear when he is clearly a marsupial. The koala points out where the misunderstanding began and how it was perpetuated, but it is clearly wrong.
Hopefully, by the end of the book, you will not make the mistake of calling a koala a bear.
From Amanda's list on humorous picture books from someone who loves funny kid books.
