The Truth About Bears by Maxwell Eaton- ADVISABLE


The Truth About Bears by Maxwell Eaton, NONFICTION PICTURE BOOK. Roaring Book Press, 2018. $16. 9781626726666

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3), EL- ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

This is a book full of both bear facts and jokes. It is illustrated in a style that gives the animals on each page word bubbles so that they can make comments about the various facts that are presented. It presents about a variety of bears and clears up some misconceptions.

Some of the jokes will need an explanation for younger readers, but this is a really light look at the factual information about bears. The pictures are really inviting and I liked that there was so much true information presented.
