A great book for a bit of an older age. We haven't read it much because it's a bit longer and lacks colour for baby, but once she's a bit older we'll read it lots! Sep 19, 2023

A classic! Our 2 y/o will sit through this book but I think older children might appreciate it even more. Cute story line and beautiful illustrations. Jan 17, 2023

I remember loving this as a child, but now that I'm an adult I find this book to be super boring and very unnecessarily long. I dread the day my daughter asks to read it Nov 30, 2022

A favorite I have from my own childhood. As a adult, I have to raise my eyebrows at the premise, but it's a sweet mix-up story that all comes right in the end. Aug 07, 2020

Beautiful one color illustrations and end papers tell a delightful story of bears and people getting mixed up with each other while gathering food. A sweet, timeless story. Aug 15, 2019
