CLANG! CLANG! TOOTLEY-TOOO! The impossibly cute bears are back and this time they have musical instruments at the ready.
The little bears pick up their instruments and play a noisy song. They dont care if the notes are wrong! But uh-oh, Big Brown Bear is fast asleep. Will their lively music wake him up A small moment of trepidation segues into a jubilant performance in a story that will be sweet music to little ears.
This book is as charming as Parenteaus earlier bear books...A simple, but important, teachable lesson is incorporatedif we work together, good things can happen. A must-have for most preschool collections.
