Why read it?
1 author picked Wonder Bear as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love wordless picture books and this one is very special! The artwork is incredibly beautiful and was silk-screened using water-based inks resulting in the most luscious colour. Two kids plant a seed; a giant magical flower tree grows with a magical bear on top who takes them on an enchanted journey full of flying monkeys, bubbles, flowers, dolphins, seals, and more. Don’t miss out and join them in this dream of a book!
From Lisa's list on The best picture books destined to be classics but still flying under the radar.
