And OHora's illustrations are adorable, and I am a fan once again. Kids will have fun reading this, or having it be read to them. Plus, Dyckman even uses the word "indignant." I mean, not only are kids learning one way to deal with their anger, but getting a vocabulary lesson, too! The story (and the rest of the text) is pretty simple, but I appreciated the use of speech bubbles and varied typography to express the strong emotions of the story. What will he do next? As Bear prepares to live up to his formerly undeserved reputation, the girl makes a mistake of her own, and realizes that maybe-just maybe-Bear isn't as horrible as she had thought.Īnother great book to address anger and how to deal with it. ![]() He doesn't think he's horrible! Then Bear gets a truly Horrible Bear idea. ![]() Themes: anger, apologies, bears, friendshipīear didn't mean to break a little girl's kite, but she's upset anyway-upset enough to shout "HORRIBLE BEAR!" Bear is indignant. Written by Ame Dyckman, illustrated by Zachariah OHora ![]()
