Our Weekly Favorite:
Author: Jim Aylesworth
Illustrator: Jo Ellen Mcallister-Stammen
Summary:
"Imagine having four beloved teddy bears, each of whom is afraid of something at bedtime. That is the challenge for the little boy in Jim Aylesworth's charming bedtime story, Teddy Bear Tears. Just as the boy is ready to settle in for the night, each bear- Willie Bear, then Fuzzy, Ringo, and Little Sam- begins to sniffle and each's particular fear has to be explained away. Whether it is noises outside or concern that there might be something scary under the bed, our hero offers explanations for each and, in the process, just might make the nighttime worry-free for himself, too."
Why We Loved It:
- Who doesn't love teddy bears? We had Emma hold her teddy bear while we read this story right before bed, which was super-cute.
- I love the concept of being brave in order to help someone else be brave. This book illustrates that very well.
- It's the perfect bedtime story- sweet and soothing.
