Reviews

"A find, of proved success with the child who has first-grade reading skill. The story of Little Bear's imaginative play feels far removed from controlled vocabulary; Maurice Sendak's drawings give it special distinction."--"Virginia Haviland, Reader's Advisor for Children, Boston Public Library
