Book Reviews of A Visitor for Bear
Book Review: a book you can enjoy with your kid
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this book for my son when he was 3 and a half, and it was an instant hit with him. Now, half a year later, it is still one of his favourites.
The story has a warm message; the illustratons are pretty and sometimes laughing-out-loud funny (those facial expressions!); the text is not hard to understand yet it definitely added new terms to his vocabulary ("vamoose", "begone", or his favourite: "for good measure"). The pictures and the interesting word choices also make this book enjoyable for parents - something that can be quite important when you have to read a book for the nth time for your child.
Summary of A Visitor for Bear
Cheery persistence wears down a curmudgeonly bear in a wry comedy of manners that ends in a most unlikely friendship.Bear is quite sure he doesn't like visitors. He even has a sign. So when a mouse taps on his door one day, Bear tells him to leave. But when Bear goes to the cupboard to get a bowl, there is the mouse - small and gray and bright-eyed. In this slapstick tale that begs to be read aloud, all Bear wants is to eat his breakfast in peace, but the mouse - who keeps popping up in the most unexpected places - just won't go away!
