Brambly Hedge 8-copy Slipcase by Jill Barklem

A little girl wants to know: Are you my brown bear?

In a series of endearing illustrations, each bear explains why he isn't quite the one she's seeking. He might be a white bear (el oso blanco), a black bear (el oso negro), or a bear that's too hairy, or scary. With rhymes, repetition, adjectives, and a simple, effective question and response dynamic, kids will pick up a plethora of language as they turn the pages, eager to see if the next bear will be the bear. Which is her . . . teddy bear? / osito de peluche?

The Hola, English bilingual books make each story personal, and being personal makes each story interesting to every child. Are You My Brown Bear? uses descriptive adjectives to differentiate between lots of bears (I am hairy bear. I am scary bear. I am boy bear. I am toy bear.)
