Along with "Little Bear" we have this book on my sons' bookshelf and read it often as part of our bedtime routine.
My two sons (5-year old and 4-year old) have enjoyed this book now for a couple years. They see themselves as "little bears" and enjoy adding their own imagination to the book's storylines.
This book introduces a new character, Emily, and reinforces wonderful messages of friendship and sharing that were introduced in "Little Bear."
The book is a classic and you can add it to your storybook collection with Amazon's 4-for-3 special offer. I suggest you also pick up "Little Bear" (see my review).

My son loves little bear and this is a wonderful addition to the set we purchased previously. Nicely done and keeps his interest.

I am amazed at the sort of complex storytelling that Ms. Minarik can accomplish with fairly simple words. [Why can't more modern authors accomplish the same?!?]
In this book, Little Bear finds two new friends, a little girl named Emily and her doll, Lucy. Together they have adventures which include going to a party, a broken arm for Lucy, and tragedy of tragedies... Emily's having to go away at the end of summer to attend school.
Five Stars. Wonderful storytelling. Good Read-aloud. I would estimate that this "I Can Read" book is on the very first grade level. [Other sources list it as a second grade reader: 2.2 Level.]
Principally the difficulty lies not in the vocabulary but in the fact that there is quite a bit of dialog and more words per page than is found in Ms. Minarik's earlier stories.

These stories about Little Bear and his friend Emily are a charming introduction to the world of reading for beginners. Little Bear is a sweet child to his mother and father and a good friend to Duck, Hen, Owl and Cat. Minarik's simple narrative will be easy enough for early readers, and Sendak's illustrations will hold their attention. The four stories are: Little Bear and Emily, about the friends' meeting; Duck, Baby Sitter; The Party at Owl's House, in which Lucy falls from a tree; and "Your Friend, Little Bear", about Little Bear's coping when Emily goes away for the school year.

I just found this book in a used book store recently and I am thrilled! I remember Little Bear so well from childhood. I bought the book and it proudly sits on my shelf waiting for the day when I have a child to share it with.
This book will give you warm fuzzys! Else has created a wonderfully warm, sweet and adorable book with cute characters.
You and your child will really enjoy it! Don't pass it up!
