  • Lyrical / Visual Picture Book

Rhythmic language follows one brown bear month by month as she searches for food, prepares for hibernation, and gives birth in her den. The seasonal arc and collage illustrations carry bear behavior and habitat science through a read-aloud journey.

The science inside

  • Animals & Zoology
  • Ecosystems

Your child will meet:

  • Brown bears change their feeding and activity as seasonal food supplies change.
  • Hibernation conserves energy during a season when food is difficult to obtain.
  • Brown bear cubs can be born in the den while their mother is hibernating.

Use it this way

Draw a short month strip from April to winter and let your child place three events from the bear's year on it, including finding food, entering the den, and welcoming cubs.
