About this item

Follow Bear as he visits animal habitats around the world - and comes to appreciate his own home - in this new offering from the creator of A Book of Sleep and A Book of Babies. Bear is tired of waking up every morning in the same green forest, so he decides to search for a new place to live. He visits the birds in the trees, a mole underground, a camel in the hot desert sand, puffins in the cold arctic snow . . . only to realize his own home is the perfect place for him after all. Welcome Home, Bear offers rich illustrations, bright colors, and a simple, spare text - all wrapped up in a beautiful, kid-friendly package. Readers meet animals in their habitats around the world - and return with Bear to the one place he is truly happy.
