Bear lives alone in a colorless world. He thinks he likes it that way until one day he gets a neighbor.
Thoughts: This is a sweet book. I like the introduction of color into Bear's world. The themes of neighbors, friendship, bears, and colors make this book quite versatile for storytime. It would pair well with Those Pesky Rabbits by Ciara Flood, Too Tall Houses by Gianna Marino, Goodnight Already! by Jory John, and A Visitor for Bear by Bonny Becker. The watercolor illustrations are both monochromatic and colorful depending on where you are the in the story. My favorite illustrations are Bear in Madame Odette's garden (before they are friends) and the cover.
Themes: Bears, Neighbors, Friendship, Colors
