Julia has many friends in the forest by her house, but she dreams of meeting a bear--one she can play with and hug. Julia tries to attract one with delicious food. To her surprise, it's not just good smells that attract bears--books do, too! Full color.x 11 5/16.

~Check out my blog, The Bent Bookworm!~A little girl who loves the woods, books, and animals? Yes please! This was a super cute story about a little girl who wants nothing so much as to give a bear a hug. She has woodland animals friends that she can play with, but she just REALLY wants to meet that bear! She decides to try to catch one using whatever means she can think of, with little success. Then one day, she leaves her precious book in the forest...I loved the bright cheerfulness of the illustrations in this book. They really made the woods come alive in the best possible way, and will hopefully encourage more children to think of the woods as happy, welcoming places, not a place to be feared. Best line: “But she couldn't leave without her book...” And every booklover ever can relate. Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review!Blog Twitter Bloglovin Instagram Google+
