An instant contemporary classic, this book has sweet illustrations and contains only five words: apple, pear, orange, bear --and there . Emily Gravett creates clever variations on this theme by rearranging the words: On one spread, a brown bear juggles an orange, apple, and pear; on another spread, there is an orange-colored apple and a pear-shaped bear. Simple and compelling, children will enjoy reading this book over and over again as they learn many different concepts. Now this beloved picture book is available as a Classic Board Book that's extra chunky and durable--ideal for the smallest of readers.
