Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? Big Book by Bill Martin Jr. & Eric Carle

Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? Big Book is an extra-large edition of the read-aloud favorite, sized so a whole classroom can gather round and follow along together. Kids guess what the big, fluffy, white polar bear is hearing as the story unfolds, chanting the rhythmic, repetitive words and making the animal sounds right along with the page. Described by the publisher as “a great big version of a great big favorite,” this oversized format turns story time into a group event. It’s a colorful successor to Brown Bear, built for ages 2-5.
