Little Book of Thanks from Brown Bear and Friends

PreS-K–Inspired by Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See?, written by Bill Martin Jr. and illustrated by Eric Carle, the World of Eric Carle brings readers another beautiful book featuring Brown Bear and friends. In this story, Brown Bear and friends are giving thanks for the beauty of the world around them. As Brown Bear comes across marvels, including apple trees, rain clouds, and sunshine on his walk, he thanks each one for sharing their gifts with the world. Text encourages readers to do the same: “Look around—little wonders everywhere. Take it in. Show you care.” Fall scenes illustrated in Carle’s classic style show apples ripening, pumpkins shining, and the sun beaming on animals playing happy and free. Little readers will love spotting familiar characters, such as The Very Hungry Caterpillar and The Grouchy Ladybug, who make appearances in the illustrations.
