There's a Bear on My Chair
by Ross Collins
What it's about: When a huge and cheerfully oblivious polar bear takes up residence in a mouse's favorite chair, the mouse responds with annoyance, outrage, and scheming...until he finally decides that
turnabout is fair play.
Read it for: the exuberant words and goofy visual humor.
Reviewers say: it's an "instant classic for storytime and one-on-one sharing" (School Library Journal).

More and more animals arrive, and soon there's a party. Will the boy ever be able to get to sleep? Filled with puns and loads of visual humor, the silliness pours off each page of this rollicking story.
