The illustrations are sweet and gentle, in soft pale colours. You can spot little creatures hidden away on most of the pages, and although the bear looks a tiny bit out of place amongst the pretty British wildflowers to me I'm sure little ones won't notice anything awry! It's a little basic for older pre-schoolers but is a sweet story for smaller ones to hear over and over.

Further reading suggestion: For more bear stories try these: [[Orange Pear Apple Bear by Emily Gravett]] and [[Can't You Sleep, Little Bear? by Martin Waddell and Barbara Firth]].
