It's a bit difficult to see the meaning of the book, but I think it is important for those who like graphic novels. I interpret it to really be about art and the artist's journey. That is partially the beauty of this book, you may interpret it however you'd like.

Also, for anyone interest in short reads- I read this on in less than an hour!

Nic goes on vacation with his family to a cabin deep in the woods. While they go on a fishing trip he is left behind with the cook, runs away, and becomes hopelessly lost. Will Nic find his family again?

This is an old fashioned yet entertaining story that should please dog lovers young and old.

three stars for the lovely illustrations but otherwise, this Caledcott winner from 1952 is a depressing story that I would never recommend to kids. This story would never be published today. An excellent illustration of how times change. Young Johnny sets out to shoot a bear, as it is embarrassing that his farm is the only one in town without a bearskin tacked up on the wall of the barn. He finds a baby bear and ends up making it a pet, which you would think (being a children's book), would be a charming and happy thing - maybe talking about the importance of loving animals and being gentle. Instead, the townsfolks want Johnny to get rid of the bear, so he sets out to return the bear to the woods and in the process, the bear gets captured to be put on display at a zoo.

Absolutely depressing.

Nice illustrations.

The Biggest Bear by Lynd Ward (1952; 1980 ed.) 85 pages.

READING LEVEL: 3.9 AR POINTS: 0.5
Preschool (ages 4-7)

A classic children's story published in 1952...and how cute! I read to two of my grandboys this morning. The youngest, age 5, and the oldest, age 7, and both loved it. The youngest gave it a hundred stars and actually stayed interested in the story the whole time, which is a hard thing for him to do. Their daddy is a hunter and they are learning the ropes, so killing a few bears on the first pages didn't phaze them in the least and they could relate. But, they didn't want big bear to be killed. Thank God there was an alternative plan with a happy ending.… (meer)
