Share, Big Bear, Share!, by Maureen Wright and Will Hillenbrand | Book Spotlight

The Children’s Book Review

A gentle story about the importance of sharing something special with friends . . .

Share, Big Bear, Share!

Written by Maureen Wright

Illustrated by Will Hillenbrand

Publisher’s Synopsis: Big Bear’s forest friends eye his berries hungrily, but he doesn’t notice as he digs into his delicious snack. When the old oak tree says, “Share, Big Bear, share,” he thinks the tree has said, “Hair, Big Bear, hair!” One comical scene follows another as Big Bear keeps misunderstanding the old oak tree’s message until things finally get sorted out. Whimsical illustrations highlight the humor in this gentle story about the importance of sharing something special with friends.

Ages 3-7 | Publisher: Two Lions | 2017 | ISBN-13: 978-1503951006
