Bear Snores On is a great book by Karma Wilson. It was actually Karma's first book published in 2002 and it became a huge hit. The book seems to have a lot more text than the typical board book. But, it is a lot of fun to read and tells a wonderful story. The story takes place in a bear's cave. But, the bear is hibernating and lots of other animals come in to get out of the cold. The bear eventually gets woken up by all of the fun the other animals are having. I love the pacing and rhythm of the book. The illustrations by Jane Chapman are very realistic and expressive. Karma now has 30 different children's books and there a few others with bear and his friends. More Great Karma Wilson Books
I may be a 'grown up' but I still read story books, like the Chronicles of Narnia for example, and this one sounds really great!
