Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Wildlife: The Bear (Piccolo Explorer Books) Author: Angela Sheehan Illustrator: Michael Atkinson Publisher: Pan Books / Piccolo (Macmillan), London, 1979 ISBN: 0 330 25751 X / 9780330257510 Format: Softcover / Paperback, 24 pages (including covers) Condition: Near Fine A beautiful first edition copy of The Bear from the highly regarded Piccolo Explorer Books wildlife series. This charming and educational children's non-fiction title follows a mother brown bear through the seasons — from autumn foraging and hunting, through winter hibernation, the birth and rearing of her cubs in spring, their playful summer adventures learning to fish for salmon, raid honey, and hunt, to the family's preparations for the next winter. The book features stunning, realistic full-color illustrations on nearly every page by Michael Atkinson, whose detailed, lifelike animal artwork perfectly captures the beauty of the wilderness, the bear family's interactions, and the supporting cast of woodland creatures (moose, wolverine, woodpecker, squirrels, foxes, birds, and more). The text by Angela Sheehan is engaging and informative, blending narrative storytelling with factual insights suitable for ages 5-9. Condition Details (Near Fine): This copy is in excellent, near fine condition. The covers are bright and clean with only the most minimal shelf wear to the edges and spine (typical for a 1979 softcover). No creases to the spine, no tears, and no significant rubbing. Interior pages are crisp, bright white, and free of marks, inscriptions, foxing, or browning. All illustrations are vivid and intact.
