Panda Bear Goes Visiting
This was my favorite book when I was six years old.I got it at the San Francisco zoo when they had two pandas on loan from China.Although it is not realistic that a panda bear would play hide-and-seek or watch movies with children, the story teaches a lesson about wild animals and why they need to stay in their own habitat.The illustrations in this book are beautiful and it is neat to see the traditional Chinese clothing on the characters.I would definitely recommend this book. ...

Best. Book. Ever.
I read "Panda Bear's Paintbox" to my daughter before she could read. One night she asked to read it back to me. And she did, from memory!, because she couldn't yet read! Yesterday, as is our tradition, I read her "Panda Bear's Paintbox" the day before her birthday. Erin is 31 years old today and we both cherish this book!

What I think
My sister was read this book when she was little all the time because she loved it so much. Eight and a half years later she read it to me when I was born. Now it is one of my favorite memories as a child. This book made me and my sister both artistic and we both love that. ... Read more

And this time Complete means complete.
Don't you just hate it when you have questions on some subject and you purchase a book which is described as a "Complete Guide" to that subject only to find it isn't a complete guide at all...Then you just get annoyed because of the wasted money.

Well, this book is not a waste of money simply because it is exactly what it says in the title - A complete guide to every species of Bear. And what a guide it is too.Just as soon as the book arrived I sat down to glance through the pages.I like to get a feel for every book I am about to review and I need to see what the format and photography is like before I settle down to some serious reading.

The first thing that caught my eye was the list of contributors.18 of the 32 names were Doctors and all of them eminent in the field of Bears, Zoology and other related aspects.Then there are the photographs - every one of which is of a "National Geographic" standard.Finally, I found the graphics to be quite excellent.

All that was left was to read the book and over the next few days it was hard to put down. I found myself describing the "Festival of the Slain Bear" to my wife and then saying something very different like "did you know that when a fully grown adult Polar Bear sands upright - they can reach 12 feet high."

This is an easy-to-read informative book supported by photography of the highest calibre and first class illustrations.If you want to know anything at all about Bears - and I do mean any species, I am sure you will find it in here.If you want to photograph Bears, these pictures will give you a standard to aim for. In fact this is probably the only book on Bears you will ever need.

Cute book
Hi, I'm Raya. My mom and I were shopping when we found a lot of these books for about a dollar each. My mom read them to me when I was little. I just turned nine.
I wish these books could be a little longer sometimes but I love them just the same. I really read them in just an hour since there are only 55 pages. Okay here is my reveiw:
~The good things~
Plot: 5 stars! The stories are so intersting and really pull you into the story.
Detail: 5 stars! I love how there tell about everything and you can kind of picture the story in your mind. Go detail! Detail is what builds a story...
Pictures: 5 stars! The pictures look so realistic.

The bad things:

needs to be longer.



That's all! ... Read more
