Summary: Beautiful photos but story somewhat lacking
Review: Compared to other Charles Fuge books, this has the same beautiful drawings but the story is a bit lacking (though not as bad as some books out there!). It is about a bear cub who brags to his bear friends about how terrific, strong, etc his father is. Then in the end his father approaches and they enjoy a bear hug together. The ending is heart warming but I don't really like the bragging part in the middle & the drawing in the middle are basically the same (the bear cubs & friends). But overall I still think this is a cute book.

Summary: my twins love it!
Review: I bought this book as a gift to my husband from his one year old b/g twins for Father's Day. Here it is the beginning of November, and it's still the twins most favorite book. True, the story line is simple (great for those VERY young readers like mine), but the pictures are wonderful (colorful & lots of detail), and the pages have a little weight to them so they don't rip as easily as some other books where the pages are super thin! It perhaps is a little too simple of a story line for older readers, but if you're looking for a special book for Dad to read to younger readers, then you've found the perfect book.
