Frog's Best Friend


Marion Bauer writes a chapter book for a 1st or 2nd grader according to the reading level. I feel that this story would be a great way to also introduce Kindergartners to chapter books. Forest animals come alive as Baby Bear tries to befriend the other animals. Turtle stays strong in his shell and the other animals help turtle get away from baby bear. I kind of felt sad for baby bear. The book had other forest animals throwing rocks and stuff at baby bear which really doesn't show friendship very well. I wouldn't really recommend this book because it shows bears in a negative light, which really doesn't matter for me except that all baby bear was trying to do was make a friend of his own.
