Riassunto

"Nothing short of magnificent."--Library Media Connection

"[A] winsome debut."--New York Times

This beautifully illustrated, fun read-aloud picture book will have kids everywhere asking the same question: "Where, bear?"

Once there was a bear cub who lived with a little boy. But over time the bear cub grew . . . and grew . . . and GREW! And did things that bears do . . . and do . . . and DO! One day the boy looked at the bear and realized he was just too big and bearish to be living in a house. "I think it's time we found you a new place to live where you can be bearish and big," said the boy. "But where, bear?"

From the only two-time World Book Illustrator Sophy Henn, here is a delightful journey that reminds us that even when best friends are apart, they always stay together.
