(4) K-3 Illustrated by Wendell Minor. Wendell Minor's accomplished illustrations are the standout feature of this picture book celebration of bears: each double-page spread captures the eye with dramatic composition and assured rendering of the textures of their pelts. The rhyming text is playful, but its occasional insecure scansion makes it somewhat less successful. Facts about the eight species are appended. Websites.
