I found this book at Goodwill. I use it in speech therapy with 3-5 year olds for s blends. They love this book.

These polar bears cubs are thrilled and go balls to the wall when they get a snow day. I thought the "snow day" (school was cancelled) was an odd theme for a board book though....My kids (18 mo, 4 years, and 5 1/2) needed to be told what a snow day was.....
This book is great fun to look at, listen to, and read.
I like that the bear on the cover is soft and fuzzy...I wish that there had been some more touch and feel action inside though....

Just plain cute. A snow day for polar bears - and a few funny penguins.

Cute story with even cuter illustrations of the polar bears. This is a great winter story for children.

It is a feel book. The polar bears can appear shiny and fuzzy. The story is good but you gotta watch reading it too fast. It can tie up the tongue which only made my audience laugh harder!
