This is a great book to pair with a song because it has a repeated phrase. Try singing the song "Grizzly Bear" every time you read the words "bear snores on." Apr 03, 2020

We love animals so this is a great book to have in our little ones library. Snoring is always silly for little kids so there’s that. Overall it’s a cute short read before bed. Feb 12, 2020
