This was read to a brother and sister who both loved it. The adults were even into it because there was information about bears they were unfamiliar with. The kids drew pictures and imagined the bears interacting.

However, there was some upsetting information in the book. This caused a dicussion about how people interact with animals and whether that's just. We had to look up to find charities to help. We encouraged the kids to think of ways they could help. I'm not at all saying this is bad, just to be prepared for some concerned or upset kids till you can figure out a solution. This may inspire kids to become active in a cause. I received this book at a free or discounted rate in exchange for my honest review.

This is a good quick reference book on 9 different bears. The photos are good. The facts are simple. The book is divided up into sections by each bear. Elementary children would enjoy it.
I do question fact 73 - polar bear habitat.
