Book Overview
Acclaimed storyteller Martin Waddell returns with a warm winter's tale of three little bears who love to pretend - and a Mommy Bear who loves to play along. "But where are my baby bears?" Mommy Bear asked. "I don't know where we are," said the biggest snow bear. When Mommy Bear comes to look for her baby bears, she finds three snow bears instead. They don't look quite like her bears, but they do like to slide down the snowy slope and throw snowballs, just like her bears do. . . . Little readers will love being in on the charming snow bear game, illustrated by Sarah Fox-Davies with all the crisp beauty of a snowy day.

Great for toddlers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This is the 7th book by this author that we have purchased for our toddler and he loves them all. This is a sweet story about 3 little bears who play in the snow with their mother; they pretend to be "snow bears" and not her three little bears. That is until the littlest one is too cold to play anymore and it is time for them all to head home for nice toast by the fire with their mother. My son loves this story - it's a bedtime favorite.
Love his books!

I love all of Martin's books. They are written with such a calm cadence and a wink of humor. His books were the perfect bedtime story for my youngest child. I have them all and recommended that our local library purchase the ones they were missing. These are keepers. I will save them for my grandchildren.
Best bedtime story ever

I bought this for Christmas for my 5 year old son. This book has become our favorite bed time story. The story is so real, it has games that we can play. The characters come alive and its an easy read. And of course, we have "hot toast by the fire" just like the snow bears. I am ordering other books by Waddell to help my son learn to read.
Sure to enchant & intrigue

Fine watercolour & pencil detail, illuminated snowy landscapes and delightfully drawn bears embellish the pages of this endearing storybook. Simply worded for pre-schoolers to relate to, the three bears play a pretend game with their mommy bear which will delight and enchant the young reader. Divine illustrations and realistically styled bears from mother to the three children go zooming through the snow, play at snowballs, and climb wonderful pine trees before returning to the warm log cabin and hot fire for delicious toast. The repetition within the text, and warmly human actions of the bears is sure to enchant & intrigue, whilst the chore of bedtime stories is lessened for you the reader by the pleasurable sweetness of the illustrations. A great favorite. kotori ojadis@yahoo.com
