"Bears and Their Cubs" is a cute, short, informational book about bears and their characteristics. The author provides different details about bears, cubs, and their lives from birth to adulthood. I enjoyed the inclusion of multiple pictures throughout the books, with at least 1 on every page. This is a great book for young readers and I would highly recommend it. They are able to look at and analyze all of the pictures along with read the short sentences with straightforward information. I also like the inclusion of table of contents and an index because it presents these different parts of nonfiction text that they may never have noticed before. ( )

Bears and Their Cubs by Linda Tagliaferro is a book written to support the science standards for life science. It is a really good book for young children to develop an understanding of how a bear takes care of her young from birth to adulthood. The text is simply written, yet it introduces a few new words, and uses repetition of the words to help students become familiar with them. This book has some fantastic photos that correlate with the text and make it easy for young children to take picture walks as well as read the text. The cover is beautifully finished with the same style of photo that is throughout the book.
As a book to enjoy and as an informational source I recommend this book. It has an easy to read and understand: Table of Contents, Index/ Word list, Glossary, Read More Section, and Internet Site Section. ( )
