I must have read this Little Golden Book book to my daughter over 1000 times. She absolutely loved it as a child. Even though she had memorized the words she insisted on having it read to her every night and she caught me every time I tried to turn two pages at once.For several years, she had unsuccessfully searched for this book so she could read it to her two sons aged 1 and 3. I was thrilled to see that it was recently re-published and available on [.com].The story line involves a baby bear who hides on his father's shoulders when it is time for him to go to bed. The father bear "searches" all over the house for "little bear" who is nowhere to be found. At long last, the father bear looks in a mirror and discovers "little bear" who is perched on his shoulders. A simple story, but one which absolutely fascinated my daughter.
Little Golden Books are great. I love the artwork in them, and this one has adorable pictures! I read this to my 6 year old, and it was a bit "young" for him. He thought it was pretty cheesy. It is basically about a father bear pretending he doesn't know his son is on his head the whole time, so he searches the whole house for him. I like it, but I would suggest it for maybe 4 or under.
I wanted to get my 3 year old nephew books that my sister and I enjoyed as a child and these were the first that popped into my mind. I am very pleased that the quality of Little Golden Books is still there! Looking forward to sharing this stories with him for years to come.
I have purchased 3 of these books over the years. It was mine as a child and then became a favorite of my own sons when visiting Grandma. Sweet story with lovely illustrations from a era gone by. A favorite bed time book, and I'm so happy to see it back in print again.
Just wanted to let other shoppers know that this story can also be found within the book entitled, "Richard Scarry's Best Storybook Ever." When my sisters and I were little, "Good Night, Little Bear," was one of our favorite stories in the Best Storybook Ever. If you don't already own a copy of the Best Storybook Ever, I highly recommend obtaining one. It's a collection of many short stories like "Good Night, Little Bear," as well as some silly one-page stories that capture the attention of little ones.
My dad used to read this book to me when I was little and now my son has my old, worn copy. Little Golden books really hold up well- my son has inherited many of mine! My two year old likes this book so much I bought it as a gift for my three year old nephew and he really enjoys it now, too. It is a cute story about a little bear at bed time (my two year old thinks it's hilarious when the little bear "hides" on his dad's shoulders). It is a favorite bedtime story in our house.
This was my husband's favorite story when he was little. Our children grew up loving it and now we can share it with our grandchildren.A cute story about bedtime and Daddy not being able to find Little Bear, who is up on Daddy's shoulders.
This was a book that my parents read to me when i was young and I love to share it with my daughter. It is perfect for children of all ages. It has great illustrations and a nice little story that makes my daughter laugh as we read it.It has everything you could want in a children's book. The copy i received was like new. the only thing to be aware of is that it is not a board book so some smaller children may try to, or succeed at ripping the pages. However if you know that going in as a parent, you will know if your child can handle paper paged books rather than the board books.
