Becker, Bonny A Library Book for Bear, illustrated by Kady Denton. PICTURE BOOK. Candlewick, 2014. $17.
Bear does not need any more books - he already has seven books and that is quite enough, thank you. But he has promised Mouse that he will go to the library and he will go, but he will not like it, not at all. Bear has very particular tastes and he wants only a book about pickles. It isn’t until he pays attention to story time that he hears something that might spark his interest.
I have liked Becker’s Bear and Mouse books, but this one confuses me a little - I don’t know if it is a book about library etiquette (Bear is yelling a lot), the new hipness of librarians (she is not the person who shushes Bear), or about the very truism that there are books for every taste.
