Make a Wish, Henry Bear by Liam Francis Walsh - ESSENTIAL

Make a Wish, Henry Bear by Liam Francis Walsh. PICTURE BOOK. Neil Porter (Macmillan),2019. $18. 9781626723320            

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

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE    

Henry Bear's parents are not average parents.  They act very immature causing Henry Bear to worry.  At school, Henry Bear meets Marjani, a new friend.  He invites her to his birthday dinner that night and explains the importance of his birthday wish.   

Children will enjoy this cute story and like the immaturity of the parents. The character development of Marjani was awkward and could have been developed more.
