When Bear decides to throw a feast, his friends show up one by one with different platters of delicious food to share. There's just one problem: Bear's cupboards are bare! What is he to do? <p/>Karma Wilson's playful text and Jane Chapman's charming illustrations bring to life this celebration of family and friendship. Young readers will delight in discovering the special gift Bear has to share.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Chapman's glowing acrylics create a joyful atmosphere in a story that obliquely references Thanksgiving, but functions as a reminder of the importance of gratitude any time of year.-- "Publishers Weekly"<br><br>Told in rhymed verse, the text reads aloud smoothly. As the animals arrive with their edible gifts, a repeated line, 'and the bear says thanks' gives children a chance to participate in the story. The book's large format allows plenty of space for the illustrations, and Chapman's lively acrylic paintings make the most of it. Even preschoolers new to the series will be charmed by this big, gentle bear and his generous woodland friends.--<i>Booklist</i><br><br>Who would not love this cuddly, soft, furry creature? A tender tale of friendship, timed for Thanksgiving.-- "Kirkus"<br><br>Wilson does it again in this new installment about Bear and his forest friends.... The illustrations are as detailed as ever, and children will want to reach out and hug Bear because he is so fluffy and welcoming. The rhymes are pleasing to the ear and move the story along. This is a great choice to share in storytime when discussing gratitude, sharing, or thanks.--<i>School Library Journal</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Karma Wilson is the bestselling author of several picture books, including the Bear Books series, <i>Where Is Home, Little Pip?</i>, and <i>A Dog Named Doug</i>.
