(3) K-3 A pajama-clad young bear tours the house and yard at night, eating pie in the kitchen, playing basketball by moonlight, and bestowing kisses on his sleeping parents before tiptoeing back to bed. The softly glowing artwork, the details of which are more suburban human than woodland (right down to the sports utility vehicle in the carport), reflect the magical quality of the cub's solo adventure.
Reviewer: Christine M. Heppermann
