With a clear respect for what our youngest listeners are capable of grasping, Bill Martin Jr. and Eric Carle created a companion to Brown Bear, Brown Bear and this time it's animals making wonderful noises. What does the polar bear hear? He hears a lion roaring. What does the lion hear? He hears a hippopotamus snorting. Imagine a storytime or a bedtime filled with the sounds of roaring and snorting children having a great time. Bright illustrations of these exotic zoo animals keep you turning the pages.
