Can You See a Little Bear? by James Mayhew

Where is Little Bear? In this charming look-and-find book, illustrated with Jackie Morris's gorgeous animal fantasies, very young children explore theatrical and circus settings as they look for Little Bear on every page. The read-aloud nursery verse, with simple clues and vivid word images, helps children discover Little Bear trying on a hat, standing on his head or floating in a balloon, until at last it is bedtime for Little Bear, and for little bears everywhere.
