Bears on Chairs by Parenteau Shirley, Walker David

Bears on Chairs (Bears on Chairs)

by Parenteau Shirley and Walker David

“Between the unerringly positive approach to a common early-childhood dilemma and the can't-miss rhyme, this will find its place on many a shelf.” —Kirkus Reviews

Four chairs. Four cuddly bears. All is well until Big Brown Bear shows up — what a stare! — and wants a seat. Can these clever bears put their heads together (among other things) and make space for one more? With expressive illustrations and a sustained rhyme in every line, this winsome tale makes sharing irresistible and is sure to have little listeners sitting up to take notice.

LOVE!!!! From the pictures drawn, the patel colors used and the rhythm of the rhyme I am completely in love with this book and have a new favorite. This little board book is entertaining, but also so much more. Provlem solving and sharing is introduced in a way that toddlers may grasp and I will gladly read this one over and again.

Bears, chairs, there, share, stare, spare, pair and fair!
