Brown Bear Gets in Shape by Alan Durant

"Brown Bear in the Dark": Brown Bear hears a crash and his house is in the dark. He and his friend, Bunny, worry that the sun has fallen out of the sky. But Chimp explains that a tree has fallen down right outside of Brown Bear's house. "Brown Bear Gets in Shape": Brown Bear wants to be slim. He tries eating carrots like Bunny, and exercising like Chimp. In the end, he is happy being bear-shaped. The "I Am Reading" series provides just the right balance of challenge and support for newly independent readers. Large, easy-to-read type, satisfying stories by top writers and cheerful full-colour pictures help children make the transition from picture books to chapter books. Each book includes a bookmark flap, tips for beginner readers and either short, numbered chapters or two short stories.
