Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The author and illustrator team of the classic Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you see? turn their extraordinary talents ot the theme of animal conservation.Thirty-five years after their very first groundbreaking collaboration, the creators of Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? and Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? reunite to address the important topic of animal conservation. A Bald Eagle soars, a Spider Monkey swings, a Macaroni Penguin struts, and a Red Wolf sneaks through Bill Martin Jr's rhythmic text and Eric Carle's vibrant images, and all are watched over by our best hope for the future-a dreaming child.
Amazon.com:
Fans of Bill Martin Jr. and Eric Carle's Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? and Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? will be delighted to see another title in this lilting call and response series. Much like their earlier picture books, Panda Bear features a string of fine feathered (and furry and scaly) friends watching over each other. In this book, however, all the animals are endangered, from a swinging spider monkey to a strutting macaroni penguin (kids will get a kick out of that name!) to a splashing sea lion. Carle’s trademark tissue paper collages will be as familiar--and welcome--as the text ('Whooping Crane, Whooping Crane, what do you see?' 'I see a grey panther strolling by me.'); young readers will quickly get the hang of the rhythm and join right in. The book concludes on a hopeful note, with a dreaming child seeing the ten f! eatured animals 'all wild and free--/ that’s what I see!' Martin includes a note on endangered species that may spark concern and interest in older readers--our hope for these disappearing creatures. (Ages 3 to 8) --Emilie Coulter

I love the illustrations in this book of all the endangered animals--they are gorgeous and make reading it to my son a real pleasure. I even learned about a new animal via this book, the macaroni penguin, which I had to look up the very first time I read it. I think this is a great addition to a child's library.

"Panda Bear, Panda Bear, What Do You See?" is a very simple book, with repetitive text that makes it easy for youngsters to read. Not being familiar with the other titles by author Bill Martin or illustrator Eric Carle, I can't compare it to any of the other titles by this duo. What I can say is that the animals chosen for this particular book are endangered. From the Macaroni penguin to the blue wolf, these creatures will captivate young minds.
Although the repetitious lines may bore parents when reading this book to their kids, the illustrations will keep their attention. Carle has made some wonderful creations on the pages of this book and they are what really make this book worth buying.
The endangered species message may be a bit over the little minds that will be reading or listening to this tale, but there's nothing wrong with giving kids this sort of knowledge at an early age. This book, primarily due to the pictures, is an excellent early stages book for children in kindergarten through second grade.

Review by Sherry North, Author, Because You Are My Baby
This book follows the same pattern as the classic Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? but with an exciting new spin -- exotic, endangered animals. It also has a delightful surprise ending that makes it perfect for a bedtime story.

My 2-year old twins like this book because they like to see the animals, but I think they'd get more out of it if more mainstream animals were used. I think they're a little thrown by animals like "macaroni penguin" - sounds like food to them. The dreaming child part is weird looking too.
I think it's great to use endangered animals, although my kids aren't exactly as concerned about animal endangerment as I am. It's not a bad book or anything, but honestly, if I had read it in a bookstore, I wouldn't have bought it.

My son loves Eric Carle books, and this is our most recent addition to his collection. I just caught on to the fact that all of the animals are endangered, but I think it's so cool that one of them isn't anymore! The bald eagle was recently taken off the endangered species list. I think that gives us (and especially kids) hope that more of those animals can come off that list, and maybe even in their lifetime.
