The Very Cranky Bear

(3) K-3 "In the Jingle Jangle Jungle on a cold and rainy day, four little friends find a perfect place to play." Moose, Lion, Zebra, and Sheep try to placate a cranky bear when they seek shelter inside his cave. The jaunty rhymed text makes for an engaging read-aloud, while the animals' efforts demonstrate kindness and generosity; expressive color illustrations add humor.
