This is an easy reader book that offers six short stories about members of a family of bears, telling the stories from each of their perspectives. It's a fun, fast read and the illustrations are colorful and cartoonish.
The bears have four children and each has their own idea of what to do and how to do it, which results in some conflicts, but mainly typical sibling and parent interactions.
interesting quote:
"She went for a long walk. Alone.
Mama smelled the grass and flowers.
She felt the sun and the wind.
She saw some birds fly past.
She was happy." (p. 10)

The parents are very connected with their kids. Alissa liked to see what each child wanted to do.
