Crying Bear: - a review by John Findley
Yes, Bears Cry Sometimes, too.
This story follows the happenings of a young adventurous bear, and if you read it with a young heart and mind. You can identify with him, and if you are reading this book aloud to someone young and upset with how the world has treated them, it maybe what is needed.
I recommend this book to those who enjoy a great story, to read to their children or as in my case to their grandchildren.
Simple to understand, well-illustrated a great children’s book.
I received this copy from Virginia in exchange for my honest review.

Cute book with fun illustrations. Kids are going to love Crying Bear and enjoy the story that shows that animals have feelings and are scared and worried like we all are. The author does a great job making the story fun and interesting while taking readers into nature and getting an insight into the wonderful world of animals.

Crying Bear by Virginia Wright is a touching book about a bear who wakes up and finds it's mother gone then goes out and looks for her. Along the way Crying Bear remembers how to fish then heads back and well you're just going to have to read for yourself, I highly recommend this book.

A Cute Tale -With Good Lessons Tucked Inside

Parents will enjoy sharing this charming tale with their young children. The cub learns to not wander away. Yet even when wandering the cub used important skills. And when found, was reminded of Mom's love. This book can be enjoyed many times since new learning can be found with each rereading.
