About this item
An unhurried fishing trip, with blueberry scones in tow, introduces a new bear duo sure to charm fans of Little Bear and Frog and Toad.. One day Big Bear says to Little Bear,I'm just in the mood for fishing.Me, too, says Little Bear. Just in the mood.. With this decided, Big Bear and Little Bear are off ... almost. First they need the right attire, poles in a red wagon, a basket of freshly-baked scones, and a good book to read. It's unclear how much real fishing will get done today, but one thing's for sure: there will be a cozy nap in the hammock at the end. . Adults who grew up with classic stories about friendship and caring will feel an immediate resonance in the low-stakes adventures of these two adorable bears. Amy Hest's wry text sets a pitch-perfect mood, and Caldecott Medalist Erin Stead brings fine art to each bucolic illustration.
