We're Going on a Bear Hunt (Walker story board books) Review

This is a song that has held a special place in my heart via summer camp and school days alike. Michael Rosen has taken the song, presented it in a thoroughly classic version that proves very charming. The story is steadily paced, bit by page, bit by page, to create a true storybook rather than just a song. Here comes our family, determined to find a bear despite the many challenges along the way. And when they find the bear... well, that's when the true fun begins, and the pacing and organization is marvelous. To top it off is Helen Oxbury's incredible artwork that lends such wonder, sweetness, and humor to this story. Definitely a keeper.

We're Going on a Bear Hunt (Walker story board books) Overview

Imagine the fun of going on a bear hunt-through tall, wavy grass (SWISHY SWISHY!); swampy mud (SQUELCH SQUELCH!); and a swirling whirling snowstorm (HOOOO WOOOO!) - only to find a "real" bear waiting at the end of the trail!

We're Going on a Bear Hunt (Walker story board books) Specifications

"We're going on a bear hunt. / We're going to catch a big one. / What a beautiful day! / We're not scared." So begins Michael Rosen's award-winning read-aloud romp We're Going on a Bear Hunt. In this lovely boxed gift edition illustrated by Helen Oxenbury, a small paperback version of the book is packaged with the softest, most fabulous little brown bear we've ever seen. Reenacting "Splash splosh! Splash splosh! Splash splosh!" across the river is much more fun with an actual bear on hand. (Ages 4 and older)

Fun plot - A. Santarelli - Orange County, CA
At first my 3 year-old was a bit scared by the bear at the end and didn't want to read it. But then, she started to pull it out of her shelf to have it read and she now likes finishing the sentences. Yesterday, we were walking on a wilderness path, and she was repeating "Stumble, trip", Stumble, trip, (a part of the book where they are walking through the forest).



Hunting? - P. R. G. -
Who wants to teach a child to be happy about hunting? Like: yey!! let's go and kill beautiful animals!



A forever favorite! - Wyndham S. Juneau -
My grandmother bought this book for me when I was 2, and I remember as a kid loving it soo much. I remember wanting to wear the outfits and wanting to go on bear hunts and teaching all of my younger siblings to read it as well. (Having it memorized definitely helped!) I recently bought a new copy for the 1 year old I nanny and she absolutely loves it. It's quickly becoming her favorite book, with her favorite part being the end where they're rushing back home. I would recommend that everyone have this book!
