Why read it?
1 author picked The Truth About Bears as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Eaton’s bear book does a nice job of blending simple nonfiction info about bears with the occasional bear joke.
For instance, within a two-page spread on bear safety, he combines fact blurbs with some silly speech bubbles. His bear characters are simply drawn and appealing, and the pages are colorful. If your young readers like this one, consider trying his other books on Hippos, Butterflies, Elephants as well!
From Joan's list on bears with funny facts and friendship.
