    I loved this book for smaller children because of the rhyming and the repetition of the line "but the bear stays up!" It lets the child get involved with the reading because they can say that line for you!! Older children reading it themselves will like the colours and the pictures and the change in size of the text is a fun addition!!! As a teacher and a parent, I feel it's a great book to develop love of reading and early literacy skills.
