Review: How to Catch A Bear Who Loves to Read by Andrew Katz and Juliana Léveillé-Trudel
A tale of two book lovers and one unlikely friendship
Julia has many friends in the forest by her house. She climbs trees with Scotty the squirrel, plays hide-and-seek with Abigail the groundhog, and has farting contests with Frieda the skunk. Julia dreams of meeting a bear, a bear she could play with and hug. But no bear has ever shown its snout.
One day, inspired by a book she’s reading, Julia brings honey (the perfect bear snack) into the woods. The next day, she tries bringing blueberries. But to her great surprise, it’s not just sweet smells that can attract a bear!
So begins a thrilling quest that will bring Julia to new corners of the forest—and of her heart. Introducing a spunky young heroine with a nose for books, How to Catch a Bear Who Loves to Read invites children to share their love of reading—and of bearnormous hugs—with Julia.
My Rating: 4/5
How to Catch a Bear Who Loves to Read by Andrew Katz and Juliana Leveille-Trudel is a cute story about a little girl named Julia who has lots of friends, but she really would love to meet a bear! One that is cuddly and loves to play, one that she could float down the stream with on a sunny day. One who loves to read!?
With lovely illustrations and a playful storyline, this book is sure to please both children and adults alike - parents may not appreciate the farting contest, but I'm sure it will tickle the imagination of a child reader.
