Bear and Bunny by Daniel Pinkwater
The delightful singing bear and his
tender bunny pal from Bear in Love are
back for another tale of friendship and sharing. Still confused thinking the other is just a
different sized version of their own species, the bunny and bear wander, eat,
sing, and share their individual adventures with each other. The bunny suggests one day that they should
get a pet. After a nap, song and
meandering about, the silly pair discover and misidentify a new animal to be
their companion. The pastel illustrations
tug at your heartstrings while the chums’ lightheartedness will have everyone
giggling.
