Product Description
Imagine the fun of going on a bear hunt-through tall, wavy grass (SWISHY SWISHY!); swampy mud (SQUELCH SQUELCH!); and a swirling whirling snowstorm (HOOOO WOOOO!) – only to find a “real” bear waiting at the end of the trail!Amazon.com Review
“We’re going on a bear hunt. / We’re going to catch a huge one. / What a gorgeous day! / We’re not frightened.” So starts Michael Rosen’s award-winning read-aloud romp We’re Going on a Bear Hunt. In this lovely boxed gift edition illustrated by Helen Oxenbury, a tiny paperback version of the book is packaged with the softest, most fabulous small brown bear we’ve ever seen. Reenacting “Splash splosh! Splash splosh! Splash splosh!” across the river is much more fun with an actual bear on hand. (Ages 4 and older)

I’m sorry to be the party pooper here, but this is an dreadful book, which might not be the writer’s fault, since it’s based on a terrible song. The activities along the way are fun enough. But if a child’s book is supposed to be fun, it’s also supposed to teach small life lessons. What does this one teach? My 3 year ancient is terrified of the book. He says the bear is mean. I say, “Why?” “Because he looks huge and scary.” So my kid has learned that huge, scary-looking, unknown things are mean (if you haven’t read the book, the bear does nothing “mean”–he’s just hanging out in his cave). More–if they’re provoked and they chase you, it’s because they’re mean (not because a bunch of kids provoked them). At the same time, my kid likes Shrek, and I like the fact that it teaches him to look beyond surface appearance, to face a huge, scary thing and learn about it–not to call it mean when you don’t know it, not to bother it and run. The book’s just odd.

Who wants to teach a child to be pleased about hunting? Like: yey!! let’s go and kill gorgeous animals!

This book is supposed to be for 4-year olds and up? My two-year ancient gets bored when every additional page is exactly the same.
We’re going on a bear hunt
We’re going to catch a huge one
What a gorgeous day
We’re not frightened
If you don’t mind this paragraph over and over again, perhaps you’ll delight in the book.
I also don’t know why only every additional page is in color. This inconsistency really bothers me (although I don’t reflect my daughter cares). What’s the purpose of this…am I missing something?
The sound effects you get to make are fun and that is the only redeeming value of this book in my eyes.
Granted, we don’t know the song so perhaps that helps.

I loved this book and song as a child…so I thought that I would get it for my small one. Well it came and the pages are in back order and upside down…oh well.

As an Early Chilhood Educator for 27 years I was disapointed by the book. It is not the storyline I have ever heard. The book is very tiny (6×6) and bulky for a child to hold. The drawings are sweet but tiny on an already tiny book. I would never have bought this book had I looked at it in the store.
