Bears and Blossoms

PreS-K—It's a beautiful spring day and the little bears want to play under the blossoming trees. The cubs start packing all of the good things they will need for a fun picnic. They bring honey and bread for lunch, drums for music and marching, and bright kites to fly in the sky. Big Bear helps them pack everything up and then they all head out to spend a day in the sun. After finding the perfect spot, the young bears set off to fly their colorful kites among the falling pink blossoms. Big Bear wants to sit and eat his lunch but his appetite will have to wait. The wind starts to blow stronger and it takes his bread and honey away. But then it also picks up the cubs with their kites and they take flight! Fortunately, Big Bear is there to help out. The use of acrylic paint gives the illustrations a soft appearance and smooth texture. The entertaining antics of the characters will capture the attention of young children. The bears seem to be full of energy as they run, climb, and soar through the sky.
