Stephanie Coccia- Children's Lit- Where’s the Bear

Where’s the Bear by Charlotte Pomerantz and illustrated by Bryon Barton is a simple book that has an extreme focus on the pictures. In this board book there are few words on each page. The words are focused around the finding of a bear. The town is very concerned at where the bear is in the woods. With this concern they go into the woods to find the bear. Once they find the bear they run back into their homes. This book is very simple, as it was mentioned earlier that there are not a lot of words per page. However, the images are very colorful and bright. I would imagine that young children would love the vivid imagery.

  1. Good point that young children are really drawn to vivid imagery and colorful illustrations. Try to include images of the book covers you are reviewing in your blog to help make your posts pop visually for your readers.
