Only five words are used in this short picturebook. The words orange, pear, apple, bear, there are cleverly and effectively used throughout the book. Small children and adults will enjoy the different scenarios from an apple or pear-coloured bear to a fruit-juggling bear. The illustrations are drawn in beautiful soft watercolors and they are very expressive conveying the emotions of the bear. The text has a lovely rhythm and works well as a book for reading aloud.
