5 adorable stars!
Super cute children’s book about a group of animals trying to out-smart each other. A good lesson for children about working together and listening to everyone’s opinions, even if our friends are shy or quiet - they still have great ideas!
Highly recommended for any animal loving littles in your life!

Zebra, Moose, Lion, and Sheep are all trying to get out of the rain and find a warm place to play. They locate a cave, which seems perfect, though they fail to check for any other inhabitants. In the shadows, lurks a very cranky bear. Back in the rain, the first three animals are sure they can solve this crankiness issue with some special adornments. Off they go to retrieve the supplies and return, ready to 'de-crankify' Bear. Sheep cowers in the rain, waiting. When Bear emerges, looking completely silly and even crankier, Sheep has an idea, but will it work? Neo did well with this story and was able to keep the rhyme pattern going. He seems to enjoy this series and finds the pictures to be quite distracting.

A silly book with cute illustrations.
Not much else to it.
Tiny humans would surely get a giggle (I know I did).

Another Australian picture book that's made it to Canadian shores, yay! This is a really delightful tale of four friends, Zebra, Moose, Lion and Sheep, who escape the rain by taking shelter in a cave and playing a card game to wile away the time, until their entrance awakens a very cranky bear who shoes them back out into the cold and wet jungle (it's a kids picture book - don't worry about the realism of a sheep and a lion being friends, or that they live in a cold jungle. It rhymes, and it reads well!).
Lion, Moose and Zebra each come up with crazy ideas for making the bear happy, thinking that he must be cranky because he has no stripes, no horns and no mane. It's quiet Sheep that realises what Bear really wants: a nice pillow so he can get some good sleep!
The illustrations are reminiscent of Disney animations, being bold and clean and over-emphasising of classic traits. Yes, the sheep looks like a pink poodle, but she looks damn cute too! The rhyming text is very engaging, with details - like sheep being left out in the cold - captured by the pictures. There's lots for kids to look at, while the text is uncomplicated.
It also has a great message, about not making assumptions or judgements about people you don't know, not assuming that everyone should conform to your own standards, and getting across the idea that what makes people happy etc. is different for everyone. The Zebra says, "If I did not have stripes, I'd be cranky too." So she paints stripes on the bear. (The illustration of the bear with mud stripes, antlers made of branches, and a mane of grass gave me the giggles!) Sheep, on the other hand, stops to think about the bear from a different perspective, tries to understand the bear, and that's what gives her idea success. Very good life lessons!

Text to teach connection:
This story has so many layers. First off, it teaches children that everyone has moods and feelings and that sometimes you don’t really know what is wrong with someone until you ask. Their bad mood may be due to something as simple as being sleepy. So we shouldn’t assume that they are overall an unhappy person because of a bad day. This story also shows the importance of sharing. An activity that students could do with this book is break into 4 groups. Assign each group a character from the story. Each student should have a different part of the story. Each group will present their story in front of the class, using handmade props. The stories will all be different because all of the animals have a different perspective.

Sheep in a cave will always remind me of The Odyssey. I doubt 4-year-olds will have the same literary baggage.

Great moral for the kids - that even when you think there's nothing special about you, there actually is; you're more amazing than you think!

February 6, 2012Jake's Review: I liked this picture book, it was really funny and easy to read. I think little kids like my brother would like this book since the pictures are colorful and goofy. The rhyme sounds really good when you read it aloud and I'm sure mom would say the story has a good moral to it (parent's love that moral stuff) The book is also really strong so even my brother wouldn't be able to destroy it when he throws it across the room (Oh no mom's going to cry again when she reads this -- the midget doesn't like books)
Jake's Rating: 9/10
Mom's Review: OMG, I just adored this board book. The illustrations are worth the price of the book alone and will appeal to kids of all ages (and yes that includes overgrown kids like me). The rhyme flows nicely and would be a great story for reading aloud or for older kids to develop their language skills. The expressions on the animals are priceless and will make you giggle and smile. Story also has a nice message and its done in a non schmaltzy in your face way that kids will enjoy. You must go out and snag yourself a copy of this, you will not be disappointed. I'm still giggling over the picture of the bear dressed up like a lion.

Text-to Teaching Connection: The Very Cranky Bear
This book is my FAVORITE book of all times! After reading The Very Cranky Bear to the students I would allow each student to select which character from the story was their favorite (lion, moose, sheep, or zebra.) After the selection, the students would make a small paper plate animal displaying the character of their choice. After completing the craft, they would glue it on a piece of construction paper and write the first letter and name of the animal on the top of the construction paper. This activity not only allows the students to display their fine motor skills by cutting and gluing, but it is also allowing the students an opportunity to use their creativity as well. This would be a two-day project. On the second day, the students will share their craft with the class during morning meeting, and tell why that character was their favorite. I feel like it's very important for the students to become comfortable with speaking in front of an audience, therefore I will incorporate as much public speaking into my daily classroom routine as possible.

This book is one of my all time favorite children's books. This story is about three friends, Moose, Lion, and Zebra, who try to escape the rain and hide in a cave. Only then do they encounter a cranky bear. They think the reason why the bear is so cranky is because the bear has no mane, stripes, or horns. But it is the sheep who realizes that the bear just needs a pillow made from wool to help him sleep.
This book is perfect to read to young children because it is full of rhymes and really engages the listeners. Throughout the book, the bear is constantly roaring at the three friends and each friend has their own personality. The story line is not complicated, making it perfect for younger children. The illustrations go from page to page and give the child lots of things to look at while being read the story. Another great thing about this book is that it has a lesson behind it. The lesson is that we should accept others for who they are and that we should assume certain things will make people happy.

My granddaughter asked me to read her this book on a recent visit. I was surprised that this simple story could be so insightful.
Zebra has a plan to cheer up the Cranky Bear by giving him strips. Moose thought he needed antlers and Lion thought he needed a golden mane. Each of them thought the bear needed what they had. It was the sheep who actually listened and helped him get what he really wanted.
It was a well-written story with minimal words, yet the meaning is clear. The pictures are strong and distinct. They add great visuals to the story.
The story reminds me that it's easy to be like Zebra, Moose and Lion who make assumptions about what people want and the value of listening.
A great lesson in empathy.

I just read this with my four and a half year old son as his bedtime story. We just got it today, we had to buy it when he saw it as its his favourite book at preschool and we had to get one for at home to read for bedtime.
Zebra has a plan to cheer up the Cranky Bear by giving him strips. Moose thought he needed antlers and Lion thought he needed a golden mane. Each of them thought the bear needed what they had. It was the sheep who actually listened and helped him get what he really wanted.
All questions answered by my son (Nicholas).
Do you like this book?
yep
What's your favorite part of the book?
this part *turns pages* points at the part of them thinking of a way to cheer the beer up
What do you think of the cover?
like it
Do you want me to read it again?
yes

This is not the first time I've read this book, and I'm sure it won't be the last. My nephews chose this as one of the books for their bedtime story tonight. The 5 year old declared it "One of my favourite stories ever!"
This is the story of four friends looking for a place to play on a cold and wet day, and they encounter a very cranky bear.
There are some interesting themes around listening to other people's needs and recognising that what makes you happy may not be what makes others happy. These can be quite deep for a picture book.
For my nephews, they just thought the bear looked funny and felt sorry for the poor, wet sheep!

This book is one of my favorites! I would use this book to demonstrate that everyone has something to contribute no matter what others think about them. I think this book would be great to use a story basket for. I would also want to talk about emotions in this book as well in regards to the bear. Like how does the bear show he's cranky? how does the bear show he's happy? This could be done in an artistic way.
June 11, 2010
This is just a simple picture book, but what I like about it most is how all the different animals think they know what will make the bear happy. People in general really want to help and serve each other, they just go about it in different ways. So if someone is trying to help you "Don't be cranky!"

Sheep, Zebra, Lion, and Moose want to play in the warm cave but it is occupied by a very cranky Bear. The friends try and cheer up Bear but only one of them is successful, who will it be? Perhaps, someone very plain.
Fun story to read aloud, interesting font choices and humorous illustrations add to the story.

The Very Cranky Bear written by Nick Bland is a picture storybook intended for children ages 3-5. The Very Cranky Bear is the story of four animal friends looking for a dry place to play on a cold and rainy day. They take shelter in a cave not realizing a bear was already there. The story takes place in the “Jingle Jangle Jungle” on a cold and rainy day. Four animal friends – Moose, Lion, Zebra and Sheep, our protagonists, search for a warm, dry place. They wonder into a cave only to find a bear, our antagonist, already inside trying to sleep. The bear roars loudly, shows his teeth, and chases the four animals back outside. Not understanding why the bear is so cranky, the animals come up with ways to cheer him up. Moose finds antlers (branches) for him, Lion gives him a mane of golden grass, and Zebra paints on stripes with mud. Sheep, feeling plain, offers nothing and stays outside when her friends go back in to “dress” the bear. It is through these actions that we learn more about the personalities of our four protagonists. Thinking of only what makes them feel superior, Moose, Lion and Zebra do not take the bear’s feelings into consideration. The bear once again roars loudly and chases the animal friends back outside. This time, he turns to Sheep and tells her he wants a quiet place to sleep. Sheep shaved off half of her wool to create a pillow for the bear. She tiptoed back inside the cave and quietly offered him the pillow. Although plain, Sheep was thoughtful and kind. The bear politely took the pillow, thanked her for her thoughtfulness, and fell asleep with the four animal friends safely inside. Throughout the story, the characters’ personalities were developed; some fully, some partially. We only saw one side of Moose, Lion and Zebra. We saw their selfishness. Their characters were flat and static. We did not see them change. Sheep’s personality was fully developed making her character round and static. We did not see her change, either, but learned she was mischievous, self-conscious, shy, and thoughtful. The bear’s personality, also fully developed, changed, however, with Sheep’s gesture, making his character a round dynamic one. The Very Cranky Bear by Nick Bland centers around the theme of a little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference.

Some books require the reader to commit to the reading experience. They need voices, facial gymnastics, and movement. "The Very Cranky Bear" is one of them. You just have to roar with the bear. It is a requirement that the reader fluff and preen with lion. To creep and whisper with sheep. It makes the whole experience special.
It brings the book to life, and makes that time we spend together, reading, memorable and enjoyable for both of us.
"The Very Cranky Bear" explores the themes of problem solving and caring for others - understanding another's needs, and giving of self. Bland's humorous acrylic paint illustrations bring the comic, anthropomorphised animals to life while the simple rhyming narrative engages and enlivens.

It's just a really good, appealing, picture book.
And one we'll be giving to the 3yo cousin for his birthday, along with a voucher for the app.

My daughter loves the Apps for Bland's books. She listens to the stories, reads them herself, clicks all over the place, and plays the simple games. They support the book beautifully and I have to recommend them.

Who would ever associate a bear being cranky? Well, this author did and it is very humorous in how the story is told.
The story involves 4 animal friends who are trying to find a place to play and disrupt a bear's sleep. The bear wakes up and tries to get rid of them by scaring them, so that he could go back to sleep. But 3 of the 4 animal friends think they have found the solution to his crankiness by trying to cheer him up through dressing him like one of them. Have you ever seen a bear look like a cross between a zebra, moose, and lion, all in one outfit? Trust me, the bear was some sight to see and this story will leave you and children tickled with humor from beginning to end. The book is illustrated beautifully in color and the pictures of the animals are detailed and comical. The book is written in a rhyme and is easy for any child to follow and be able to learn about feelings and be able to answer such questions such as, "Why was the bear so cranky?", "Did he have to be cranky?" "What do you think he could do or say differently to the other animals?", "Do you ever get cranky?" "What makes you cranky like a bear?","What would like for someone to do so that you are not cranky anymore?”. A child will be able to learn, recognize and know how to deal with a "cranky" mood.

Love, love, loved this book.
Four friends try to find a safe place out of the rain to play, and encounter a very cranky bear. They then set about trying to make the bear happy. The writing is clear and in verse. This makes it great to read a loud and there are a few well placed illustrative roars to throw in there.
The illustrations are just beautiful. Children will delight in the pictures (so will the parents) that are vibrant and extremely detailed. The Author is also the illustrator and he did an amazing job anthropomorphising the animals and capturing their expressions, personalities and moods.
On a deeper level this book simply deal with issues like problem solving, negotiation, thinking outside the box, and most importantly caring for others. Instead of pulling a prank on the bear or getting revenge the four friends try to work out why the bear is angry and how they can cheer him up. However this is not a serious book and the words along with the pictures make it quite humorous. When the bear comes out of the cave, he looks so silly you cant help but laugh.
My 8 month old loved looking at the pictures and enjoyed the roar noises. He absolutely loved this book but I think I liked it more :) I would definitely recommend this book to anyone with young children.

This could be cute for storytime, the pictures really pop out. There is an illustration in here that is just hilarious. It might work pairing it with other books on emotions, such as the Pout-Pout Fish.
Four friends in the Jingly-Jangly Jungle need a dry place to play. Cranky Bear, who's trying to sleep, throws them out of his cave. Now, I have a little suspension-of-disbelief problem with the selection of friends. They are: a zebra, a lion (okay, doing fine), a moose (moose?!), and a sheep. A sheep?! Okay, there's a reason for each of these, but I just don't see them a) together and b) in a jungle together.
Anyway, in an effort to soothe the cranky bear, three of them try to cheer him up with things that make them happy: the zebra is happy with stripes, the lion is happy with a mane, and the moose thinks antlers are just the ticket. Sheep is left not able to think of anything.
Cranky Bear does not agree.
Finally, the sheep comes up with an idea and shears off half of its own wool to make a nice pillow for Cranky Bear, who can finally get to sleep so that the four friends can continue ... their bridge rubber?
I thought the denouement went a bit too fast, but that picture of even crankier Cranky Bear bedecked with stripes, antlers, and a mane is a winner.

I'm not going to put on all the picture books I've read, but this one is fantastic. Great pacing, lovely story and a hit in our family. All of Nick Bland's bear books are great but this one is the pick of the bunch.

My first french book. Reading and translating to learn more vocabulary. This is definitely a small children's book with a cute story lesson, but I found the vocabulary tough for this age level.... or it's just me.
