Ella creates her ideal story that absolutely does not include bears. Stories should be about princesses, monsters, castles and fairies. This book has very busy pages for young eyes to enjoy.

There ARE bears in this entertaining metafictional, fractured fairy tale.

A book dedicated to girls. Bears are for boys so this story removes bears from the entire scene. This book is like a modern fairy tale that teaches you that good work is rewarding. McKinney has very good creative thoughtful illustrations. It has tiny bits of information from stories.

This book, filled with magic, monsters, princesses, and definitely bears, is one for the girls. It is a good book with pretty illustrations, however it did not strike the biggest chord with me. Ella, the little girl in the story, explains how her perfect book would go. This book great for alone

time with a little one, but I would not read it to a whole class because it seemed a little generic. McKinlay and Rudge did a wonderful job, but it just was not my favorite.

"No Bears" by Meg McKinlay is about modern fairy tale. McKinlay did an awesome job with the story and illustration.
