Four decades ago, Bill Martin Jr and Eric Carle collaborated on their first book together, Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? Since then, Brown Bear has become a perpetual favorite for generations of teachers, parents, and children, selling more than 7 million copies in various formats and languages.
To celebrate Brown Bear’s 40th birthday, this special anniversary edition is a larger size, has an updated cover, and includes an audio CD. Brown Bear fans will be able to read along with the story as it’s read on the CD and hear the author and illustrator talk about this beloved book. We invite you to enjoy Bill Martin’s rhythmic text and Eric Carle’s stunning illustrations in a whole new way!
Still a classic! Wonderful book! I use this for my students and my own children. CD was a great addition.
Brown Bear Brown Bear what do you see Excellent book for preschool and kindergarten. This book can be used to reinforce color recognition. It is also beautifully illustrated. The free CD is an extra bonus!
Good book for early language development I cannot say that my daughter (now 22 months) was really fascinated by the book itself, maybe because we don't have it as a board book, so she was not allowed to handle it when we got it. She was probably 9 months or so. She is not into the animals, and she is still indifferent to a book. However, the story flow generated a game for the times when Anna is bored and getting fussy, for example, for longer car rides. I would say, Anna, Anna, what do you see? and then would make up the next verse, for example, I see my sandal looking at me. She likes this game, and I think it helps well with language development. Now she sometimes supplies the verse subject, for example, I see papa. I still have to come up with action, but it's a progress.
defective merchandise This particular book has an included CD. The CD sleeve was glued upside down to the back cover so that when you open the book it falls out of the book. It is not worth it to me to send the book back to the seller for replacement, but it does sour me on the Amazon experience.
Good book bad CD I love his book and the original tape that goes with it of Bill Martin reading the book and the book being sang. Gwneyth Partrow should stay with acting or bed time stories. My students reacted better to my off key singing than to her sleept voice.
