I LOVE Little Bear, but the audio books just didn’t do it for me sadly

[Courtney Bowman · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is one of a series of Little Bear books. They all are really good books to read to children that have an underlying message within them.

I would want all children to read these books so that they can all learn different skills in the same fashion.

I read these books as a child. I loved reading so much I had to hide under my bedcovers so that my grandmother didn't know I was still awake. Probably one of the reasons I had to start wearing glasses in first grade.

I grew up reading Little Bear and this audio was done nicely.
