APPEALS TO: MANY
Harold the bear loves fall days. He loves the changing leaves and he loves spending time with his friends the crows. Harold is saddened at the shortening of the days and the approach of winter. Harold DOES NOT want to hibernate. He wants to play and explore. Harold is very concerned that his friends will forget him if he sleeps the winter away. In this adorable picture book, friendship is explored and a tender ending will leave the reader wanting more Harold the Bear Story Series.
The illustrations are amazing! Harold's emotions are displayed perfectly. The colors are soft yet inviting. With a splash of bright colors, the pages draw the reader in. We loved the tender ending and how friendship is defined and explored.
