Bear Snores On
By: Karma Wilson
Illustrated By: Jane Chapman
This was Karma Wilson’s debut as a children’s’ book
author, and it was fantastic. It was also featured this year as one of
the Kohls Cares for Kids books. Kohls dedicates 100% of the net profits
from the sale of this book to designated children’s hospitals. Each
year Kohls has several books and stuffed toys priced at only $5.00 to
ensure the furthering of their effort to improve the health and
educational opportunities for children.
In Bear Snores On a great brown bear lies
sleeping in a deep dark lair. While he’s sleeping some other forest
animals stop in to get warm. Even after a fire is started and corn is
popped, bear keeps sleeping. After a number of uninvited guests arrive
and a party is started Bear finally awakens. Young readers will enjoy
watching Bear’s BIG reaction to his surprise guests and will love the
happy ending.
This book was a fun read and is perfect for reading
aloud with its lyrical text. I love reading to my children and would
recommend Bear Snores On for winter or anytime during the year.
It makes it extra special to know that this reasonably priced hard cover
book is also helping children in local children’s hospitals. Check it
out at your local Kohls or find it at Amazon.com. You may also
want to get Bear Wants More and Bear Stays Up for Christmas.
