Baby Bear meets all sorts of different animals until he finally finds what he is looking for - his mother. Told through Bill Martin's rhythmic text and Eric Carle's vibrant images, this is the fourth companion title to the much-loved classic Brown Bear Brown Bear, What Do You See?

　　Forty years ago, Martin and a newcomer named Eric Carlelaunched a cottage industry with their now-beloved classic, BrownBear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? (1967). After narrowing theoriginal book's broad purview in two sequels, Polar Bear, PolarBear, What Do You Hear? (1991), about zoo animals, and Panda Bear,Panda Bear, What Do You See? (2003), about endangered animals, thisthird sequel continues the thematic approach with an all-Americanassemblage and attention paid to the continent's many regions (amountain goat, a rattlesnake, and a blue heron are among thecreatures depicted). Martin's rhythmic text cleaves to the familiarpattern and leads readers from one double-page animal portrait toanother, all crisply set against white backgrounds. Adults mayappreciate the educational prospects of the North American angle,but the appeal here for the youngest children—as with the book'spredecessors—will be in examining the complex, collaged textureswithin Carle's simple forms and in gleefully anticipating theappearance of each critter in the sequence.

'The natural history is a source for smiles, the illustrations in collage and paint are little works of art.'
--The Times Educational Supplement

'Carle's books all have an educational element -- they teach about animals, numbers, colours and nature -- but a big part of their appeal is that they are not didactic or laboured, but light and entertaining. There's warmth and humour there too.'
