Jesse Bear, What Will You Wear? - Nancy White Carlstrom

This rhyming picture book follows Jesse Bear through his day. The rhymes . . . are clean and catchy and beg to be recited. The illustrations (have) a cheery, uncluttered exuberance. . . Jesse Bear celebrates youngsters' joy, pride and comfort in their own independence as they try on their own familiar environment and find that it fits.--School Library Journal, starred review. Full-color illustrations. \nIn lilting verse and exuberant paintings, the first of Nancy White Carlstrom's and Bruce Degen's celebrated Jesse Bear books creates a special day not only for Jesse Bear, but for young children everywhere. \nWhat does a little bear wear while he romps through a bright and sunny day? In the morning, his pants that dance, a rose between his toes, and the sun on his legs that run. At lunchtime, an apple to bite and a moustache of white, and juice from a pear and rice in his hair. And at night, his pjs with feet and face on the seat, and sleep in his eyes and stars in the skies, as he dreams of the fun he'll have tomorrow.\n
