Books Aren’t for Bears by Mark Barry and Katy Halford

GENERAL SPOILER WARNING

But one day, Bear found something that changed everything. He found … a book.

Oh my gosh, this is such a sweet little story about a bear who finds a book and loves it so much that he learns to read and then travels to the big city to find more books. I do wish there had been a few more pages where the Bear was able to respond to the teacher and the bookshop owner who said that bookshops and books weren’t for bears, but I did like that he was welcomed at the library at the end! Overall a great little book for young kids!

Thank you Netgalley for the eARC.
