Oh, do I love the books about Bear and Bird! The stories are full of childlike wonder and behaviour, while teaching some lesson at the same time. But it's not heavy on the lesson part. This is, to me, the perfect balance in a childrens book.This picture book has the same lovely aspects of these stories that I know already. It is funny, lovely and warm. I can really imagine children enjoying reading the story.The style of illustrations is also lovely. They are very pretty to look at, but just like in the other books, it's easy for young readers to spot the elements of the story. The illustrations really enhance the story and add their own elements as well.
