This book is for younger students to help them learn different animals. It also tells them certain characteristics about the animals.

Following the familiar pattern of Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See, this new version introduces children to new mountain forest animals who move around Baby Bear in interesting ways. The size of this book fits perfectly into small hands. The illustrations are uniquely Eric Carle's, outlines

of colorfully painted animals on a white background so that the focus is on the words and pictures. Children easily pick up the rhythm of the text in its sing-songy way and can repeat it with only a few exposures. Highly recommended for young children ages 0-5.

Great for grades k-2. Helps students have good character. Illustrations drawn using water colors. Baby Bear sets out to look for his Mama Bear, meeting a diverse cast of North American animals along the way.

This book is great for children to learn repitition. I like reading this book out loud and offering them the chance to guess what animal it is. This is a great read for young children who don't get bored very easily.

Same formula, new animals. While it is laudable to focus on Native American wildlife, this felt a little forced - I don;t think it has the charm of the original. As a board book, it didn't grab Liam's attention at all, I'll try him when he's older.

Baby Bear, Baby Bear, What do You See? is such a cute book, The author wrote the book for children to be able to read along and feel like they are apart of the book. The book ask many questions about what do baby bear see. It time it ask, it's a different animal that it see. At the very end he see

It is just like the book Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you see? except it tells of what the baby bear sees. Young students can relate to this story because it tells what the different animals are doing in the book. For example, the squirl is flying, the rattlesnake is sliding, and the owl is

Perfect book for the younger ages. Introduces baby animals in a fun, rhythmic way.
LibraryThing member bwilhelm09
Genre: This book is a fantasy because the animals talk and say what they see, however, we learn about many of the different animals that can be found in North America. The character, setting and events are made to be believable because the story is about how the animals run into each other and each

one sees a different animal. By the end of the story the mama bear and the baby bear are reunited.

Similar to Polar Bear, Polar Bear What Do You Hear? but with woodland animals and without sound. Children should enjoy this book almost as much as the first one. For ages 2-4.

This is book about a baby bear who see's lots of animals along his journey with his mother bear and at the end they see all the animals and the mother bear see's her baby bear.

I think this is a good first reader for children, after reading it a couple of time they can read the story just by

looking at the pictures.
You can talk about all the differant types of animals and where they might live. You could pretend to go to the zoo and talk about all of the animals you might see along you journey.

This book is one of a series of books that uses a cute rhyme scheme to talk about colors and animals. I have read it a few times to young children and they all seem to really enjoy the illustrations and the rhythm of the words. It can be read with a rap beat which makes it fun for them to read

This is a great rhyming book that teaches children about animals and colors. It has many animals and the repetition of the book is great for young ages.

I would have this book in my room because it is predictable, has good illustrations, teaches colors, and teaches animals. This book is appropriate

In my opinion this is a very informative and helpful book. I chose to read this book because I am very interested in animals and I was curious to see how they might be portrayed in a children's book. This book serves to introduce 10 different species of wildlife to a younger audience. The language

is clear and patterned and uses many different action verbs such as "gliding", "climbing", and "sliding". I think that the use of these types of words will help to expand the vocabulary of young readers. The writing flows and the plot is well-paced. The animals featured in the book are interesting and enhanced by their illustrations. The illustrations really bring the author's words to life. I think that the intention/big idea of this book is to get children interested in animals that live in America and hopefully instill a love for animals. Although there wasn't a true "moral" of the story, I still think that this book will get children thinking about and considering the animals they share the United States with.

This book would be great to utilize in a kindergarten or first grade classroom. The book is similar to a poem and involves a lot of question response dialogue. The book has simple vocabulary so that readers could utilize this book as an independent text. Each line has rhythm and is easy to

understand. "Baby Bear, Baby Bear, What Do You See?" could be utilized in a lesson on understanding end punctuation and how it impacts how the story is read, or used to provide repetition of certain words. This would allow students to learn how to utilize the vocabulary and are familiar with the words for future readings.
