Together they spy an owl overhead, look deep into the frozen face of the lake, and contemplate the fish sleeping below the surface. Then it's time to say goodbye: for Bear to go home and hibernate with the family and for Wolf to run with the pack. Daniel Salmieri's debut as author/illustrator is a beautifully rendered story of friendship and the subtle rhythm of life when we are open to the world and to each other.

At the end of the day a little boy falls asleep as his mama reads about a bear hibernating. Full color.

When Bear is too sick to play, his animal friends go to his cave to make him soup and tea and keep him company.

Big Brown Bear and Little Bear shared a cosy cave. They shared each other's company and they shared each other's food. Little Bear liked eating edges and Big Brown Bear munched up all the middles. This worked very well until, one autumn day, Little Bear woke up feeling EXTRA hungry and Big Brown Bear woke up feeling MONSTROUSLY hungry...

Karma Wilson's debut book Bear Snores On has received rave reviews, won numerous awards, and has been a New York Time's and Publishers Weekly Bestseller in the children's picture book category. Bear is back for more adventures with his friends in this endearing series illustrated by Jane Chapman.

Three species of bear inhabit North America: the grizzly, the polar bear, and the black bear. But the American black bear is truly North America's bear, found only in North America. Black bears range from Canada to Mexico, from New England to California. There may be as many as 750,000 black bears roaming the forests and mountains of the continent. With its large population, and with more people moving into black bear territory, it's important that we understand this magnificent animal. Stephen R. Swinburne takes us to where black bears live. He joins biologists in search of bears in the Pennsylvania woods, where a mother bear is examined and her cubs tagged. He visits a "school teacher" for orphaned cubs who teaches them how to survive in the wild. Along the way, he offers his personal observations together with fascinating facts about black bears and their world. (Did you know that in the autumn, black bears consume as much as twenty thousand calories a day? That's equivalent to forty-two hamburgers!) With stunning full-color and archival photographs, this lively book shows how North America's bear behaves and survives.

In the newest addition to the best-selling Bear series we find Bear hard at work as a postman. Follow Bear as he delivers letters parcels and packages all over town meeting other bears all busy working at their different jobs.
