Nesbitt, Kenn More Bears! illustrated by Troy Cummings.
BOARD BOOK. Sourcebooks Jabberwocky, 2017. $7.99
A children's book author is
interrupted in his story creation by an unseen audience constantly asking for
'More bears!' to be added to the story. Answering the call, the author
introduces a myriad of bears in all shapes and sizes until there are finally
just too many to fit and they all leave. This gives the author opportunity to
then introduce 'More chickens!'
This is a straight-up book of silly. There is
no real story here, just a lot of silly fluff that younger readers will giggle
at and enjoy for what it is. As an adult reader I was a little confused at
first, but on a second go-round I could see how kids would find the
interactions between the author and his audience as incredibly funny and
enjoyable.
