Do you dream of seeing some real, live bears? Then this essential guide to bear spotting, filled with offbeat humor and quirky illustrations, is for you!

In this perfect read-aloud, sure to delight kids and parents alike, a young aspiring bear spotter ventures into bear country . . . But coming face-to-face with the furry creatures themselves, whether black or brown, can be dangerous, and our protagonist--accompanied by a trusty teddy bear--might need to use some unconventional means to stay out of trouble and avoid being (gulp!) eaten.

This laugh-out-loud, how-to guide--brilliantly brought to life by New York Times bestselling illustrator David Roberts' expressive art--is a must-read for fans of I Want My Hat Back and Secret Pizza Party.

Review:

"The illustrations in this picture book are wonderfully quirky and the story is interactive and humorous. This book would be a fun, funny read aloud for any classroom or library. Recommended." - School Library Connection

"Sweet, silly, and just a wee bit scary, this title could make a great wind-down story for a cold winter’s night." - BCCB

"Roberts’s . . . artwork is exquisitely inked and textured, and there’s subversive comedy on every page." - Publishers Weekly

"The layout and humor make this a good read-aloud choice for the older picture book crowd." - School Library Journal

"Robinson’s chatty, conspiratorial style addresses the reader directly . . . Roberts enhances the text with whimsy . . . The British duo’s clever creation travels well across the pond and will produce plenty of raucous laughter." - Booklist

"A handy story for little adventurers curious about the outdoor world. . . [A] quirky, appealing title. Be sure to snuggle up to 'the stuffed kind' of bears and share this book with future Scaredy Squirrel series fans." - Kirkus Reviews
