IF YOU WERE A PANDA BEAR

Gentle music and the sounds of bear habitats provide the background for this catalogue of bears and their characteristics. Panda and polar bears are familiar favorites, but more unusual bears such as spectacle and moon bears are also introduced. And what bear book for youngsters would be complete without a teddy bear? Tom Stechschulte's leisurely yet purposeful narration enables young listeners to catch the subtle rhymes that provide details on each creature. Stechschulte's voice perks up as he (and listeners) marvel at the "Bear Fun Facts" that complete the production. A.R. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2015]
