Big Bear Hug by Nicholas Oldland
A huge bear is wandering through the forest - but wait a minute Who's that he's hugging? A beaver? And a moose? And a bird? And a tree?
Welcome to the world of>Big Bear Hug, a contemporary fable about a bear who has an appetite for hugging everything in sight - even creatures that bears have been known to eat. One day, the benevolent bear meets up with a human. This human proceeds to do something the bear cannot understand: he raises his axe and begins to cut down a tree. Suddenly the bear doesn't feel like hugging anymore and must make a difficult decision on how to stop this destruction in his forest.
The environmental message of>Big Bear Hug>is both funny and powerful, while simple enough to engage very young children and show them the awesome power of a hug.
