The Very Sleepy Bear


Book Description

All Bear wants is to hibernate in his cozy cave, but sneaky Fox has his own plans for the space! "A great big bear like you," said Fox, "so big and strong and brave, a creature so magnificent . . . deserves a bigger cave." A very sneaky Fox and a very sleepy Bear set off to explore other places for Bear to call home. The train tunnel is too loud, even if the double doors are nice. The hollow tree's high ceilings are great, but the bats are not. The oceanfront option has great views -- great, but damp. Could it be that sleepy Bear's own cozy cave is the perfect one after all? A wonderful new installment in Nick Bland's popular picture books featuring the endearing Very Cranky Bear and his animal friends.

The Legend of Sleeping Bear


Book Description

It started with a mother's love... Fleeing from a forest fire, a mother bear urges her two cubs into the watery shelter of a vast body of water. Though it will be difficult, she knows if they can swim across to the opposite shore, they will be safe. With calls of encouragement and steadfast love, Mother Bear guides her cubs across the great lake, Lake Michigan. And the story of what happens once Mother Bear reaches the far shore becomes the legend behind the natural wonder known as Sleeping Bear Dune. In 1998 writer Kathy-jo Wargin and nature artist Gijsbert van Frankenhuyzen combined their talents to bring The Legend of Sleeping Bear to life. Published to wide acclaim, the book was soon named the Official Children's Book of Michigan.
