Why read it?

1 author picked I Don't Care! Said the Bear as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This is one of the first books I read to my children at bedtime. It's an amusing rhyming story with a wonderfully funny ending. My children loved joining in with the rhymes and would add funny voices for each animal. They always pretended to be surprised by the ending and would try not to giggle too early when I turned to the last page. This is a family favourite and brings back great memories. 

From Gillian's list on children's picture books to read aloud.
