Shh! Bears Sleeping - Board Book

by David Martin (Author), Steve Johnson (Illustrator), Lou Fancher (Illustrator)

In the fall
When leaves turn red
Bears know soon
It's time for bed
Comes winter
Comes snow
Bears are ready
Bears go
In their cave
Warm and deep
Winter is time
For bears to sleep

A lilting read-aloud text and stunning pictures combine to make an irresistibly appealing picture book that follows these fascinating animal friends through the cycle of the year. A page of facts about bears will answer young readers' questions as they begin to explore the wonders of the natural world.
