My only difficulty is that I found it difficult to judge who would be the ideal audience for this book. The level of the text and the concept would, I think, make this too difficult for very young children to cope with but it would make a lovely gift for a slightly older child who may enjoy the almost magical quality of the story. It would also work very well in schools as a prompt for discussion about the role of man in protecting and caring for our planet and sharing it successfully with animals. I also found it a story that I enjoyed more with each re-reading so will be fascinated to see how this one goes down in our school library.
Bookbag also loved another beautiful picture book by Jackie Morris - [[Song of the Golden Hare by Jackie Morris|Song of the Golden Hare]] . If you would like to share a book about a bear with younger children you may like [[The Bear in the Cave by Michael Rosen and Adrian Reynolds]]
