The Bears Holiday is a tale about Baby Bear learning all the important things about going on a holiday to the beach. Papa Bear teaches Baby Bear some safety rules on and off the land. Abi's favourite part is when they go underwater to explore and encounter a grumpy whale.
This is a fantastic book to read. The illustrations are fantastic and the story has a great blend of rhythm and repetition. The story is quite wacky but Abi seems to love it even more with every read. Highly recommend this book.
We have been reading this book for a few months now. Only recently has Abigail really understood that there is a real baby in my belly. She knows this story word for word. Her favourite part is when they talk to the baby through the imaginary "tummy telephone". Abi has now insisted we do this with my belly and we often talk to the baby throughout the day, telling him all about life outside the womb. My favourite part is when the little boy in the story is impatient and wants to meet his little brother but the Daddy insists that "the door is closed rather tight". Haha, what a way to put it, Mummy's cervix is CLOSED!
I adore Bears Holiday! Used to be a fave as a kid, must go and get it for the girls. xx
ReplyDeleteOh SNAP...LOVE Bears holiday. Have my original from when I was a gal.
ReplyDelete"There's a house inside my Mummy" was a book I hired from our local library several times during my second pregnancy. I didn't think Master S would understand, as he was only 19 months when his little sister was born, but I was wrong. He addressed my tummy as "bub" and since she was born they've had an extra special bond. I hope Abi and your new bub share the same love, friendship and strong bond that my kidlets do, because it is the most beautiful friendship to witness :) :)
