This book is a great way to encourage children between the ages of 4-8 to embrace their emotions. This audience of readers can learn from George that emotions are just fine and that we can show our feelings while also solving our problems in the end, especially with the help of friends, family, and other kind people in our lives. The book also has some imaginative and detailed artwork that draws the reader's eyes through the adventures and mishaps of George the Bear's trip to the library in a fantastically playful way. The dialogue, descriptive language, and artwork work together to create another engaging picturebook for this series that teachers, parents, and librarians could easily enjoy reading out loud to young primary-age children.… (plus d'informations)
