Why read it?
1 author picked The Bear's Lunch as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love this story through its use of tension and suspense.
Children are hooked on the fact that there is a hungry bear on the prowl. The story engages the child, causing them to listen intently. The reader can ask the listener to predict what will happen and what they might do in such a situation. Children also love joining in the bears' growling at the predictable times in the story.
The book has a wonderful surprise and a sense of relief at the ending.
From Rosie's list on read aloud shared reading with 3-6 year olds.
