Praise for More Bears!

“A rollicking metafictional romp...Kids will be shouting along with every request for more bears—it’s a story that’s made for read-aloud, though it’s all but guaranteed to be a rowdy one.” —Publishers Weekly

“I love this book. No, you don’t understand. I really love this book. This reminds me of the interactivity of that old Grover book, There is a Monster at the End of this Book or something like that. Each page brings interaction with your child and reader’s audience. I love it! The poetry is so much fun and attractive to the ear...I definitely recommend this for a keeper shelf for every child.” —Creative Madness
