Moonbear's Dream (edició 2014)

The two friends thought they were dreaming when they saw a kangaroo. They did things thinking they wouldn't have to clean up when they woke up. When the zookeeper found the escaped kangaroo, he cleaned up the mess he thought the kangaroo made. So when the friends came inside, their dreams came true. The illustrations were simple and had a great flow. ( )

Moonbear’s Dream is a fantasy book. This book is about a bear and a bird who think they are dreaming but really aren’t. This would be a fun book for teachers to read while talking about dreams. The teacher could ask their students to write about what kind of dreams they’ve had before that have been weird. Then after reading the book the teacher could have the students write about a dream they would have if they could chose their own dream. The illustrations in this book are simple yet still very colorful and show enough detail for the story. ( )

This is a funny one: Bear and bird see a kangaroo in their yard and figure they must be dreaming. They proceed to do things they'd never dare do while awake since they figure all will be back to normal when the dream's finished. This is a fun twist on the "it was all a dream" story structure.

So far not my favorite book I have seen from him, but I could see a small child really liking this book. Pictures are very easy on the eyes and captivating. It is overall a fun naughty story that would attract young children and provide a good early book.

"Moonbear's Dream" by Frank Asch is a book about Bear and his friend Little Bird. One day Bear and Little Bird make-believe that everything they see is a dream and that they are really in their beds dreaming about what is happening. They go around town and on many adventures this day and pretend that it is all a dream. By the end of the story, Bear and Little Bird are tired and finally get in bed and go to sleep to dream for real. This book is a wonderful story of friendship and displays the power of make-believe. I would read this book to young students and encourage them to be creative and make-believe their own stories.
