Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Teddy Bear Stories and Rhymes
Ronne Randall · 1997
62/100
👎 Skip It
A cheerful, reliable read-aloud anthology for toddlers and preschoolers — varied bear scenarios, warm Stevenson illustrations, and a sturdy spiral-bound format that survives small hands. There's nothing wrong here, just nothing distinctive either: no original material, no awards, no formal reviews. A safe choice for a toddler gift or bedtime basket, but not a standout.
