Destined to become a contemporary classic, this book has spare text and sweet illustrations but contains only five words: apple, pear, orange, bear--and there. Emily Gravett creates clever variations on this theme by rearranging the words--on one spread, a brown bear juggles an orange, apple, and pear; on another spread, there is an orange-colored apple and a pear-shaped bear. Simple and compelling, children will enjoy reading this book over and over again as they learn many different concepts.

Read it at work. I love the twist ending. ;3
A truly lovely little children's book about the pleasures of punctuation, specifically the comma. No, no, come back! Jeez, it's not that bad. The four words of the title are repeated and rearranged, with sweet watercolor sketches as illustrations. Mid-book there's a page with the words "Apple, pear"...
Everything Emily Gravett does is great. This would be perfect for toddlers. It should be a board book.
Just five little words arranged and rearranged with delightful little illustrations to match. Since this is an ideal book for the younger set (under three) I highly recommend the board book format! This would be a great baby shower or first birthday present!
