Braxton READ THIS BOOK to mommy!!! Our family and friends will understand my excitement!

Love the expression on the Bear's face when he realizes the consequences of his energetic enthusiastic behavior. Such a cute series... I sure hope that the books are inexpensive though as they are *so* short... an anthology, like the first (?) would be better.

Not an awful book, but not fantastic. Not memorable or even very enjoyable. Just sub par.

The second book of this series, me and my son, read together. Short and cute. The only problem is now my son wants to take a bath with the boat we don't have and made me order it online.
