Books with title Don't Wake Up the Bear!

It’s a cold, snowy night, and a big, soft bear sleeps soundly in his cave. A small hare wanders by, and since his ears are so cold, he snuggles up in the bear’s cozy den. Before long, a fox comes along with the same idea. "You may come in," says the hare, "but don’t wake up the bear!" As the night wears on, the nest of sleeping animals expands until a mouse with a cold curls up right in the bear’s ear-and wakes him up with a loud sneeze! Warm, playful illustrations and a repeating refrain make this bedtime book perfect for year-round reading.

No one likes to be awakened from a sound sleep, especially not your teddy bear! Practice your reading skills as you learn to read through repetition, word recognition and rhyme, and enjoy the kid-friendly illustrations in this fun book written and illustrated by Penelope Dyan, an award winning author, an attorney and a former teacher who really knows, loves and understands children. Dyan books are kid tested, and they encourage children to be creative and even to try their own hand at creating their very own books, without even being told to do so. Children are encouraged to shout out the word that comes next in the rhyme, and can see words repeated, meaning if they don't get a word or phrase the first time, they have another chance to get it right! This method creates a built in success! Kids will want to learn and read if they think that learning and reading are fun. And this is the whole point of the Penelope Dyan kids' readers. For a kid, everything in life should be fun; and Dyan believes we should all remain kids as long as possible. Look for the music video that goes along with this book on the Bellissimavideo YouTube Channel for even more learning fun!
