Additional Read Aloud Fun Why raising readers Has Selected This Book: With some picture books, it is love at first sight. BEAR SNORES ON has great language, fun sounds and fantastic illustrations.

As a reader, you just know that each additional noise is going to wake the bear up. That sweet suspense leads to a perfect surprise ending. "Bear Snores On" Activity Why not make a BEAR SNORES ON snack time? Pop popcorn with your young reader and make cups of herbal tea just like the characters in the book.
