Little Polar Bear and the Big Balloon (Little Polar Bear (North-South Books))

Rating:
Summary: great kid's book
Review: An adult might find the storylines a bit repetitive but my 3 year old loves all of the Lars books. We got her some at xmas and she was so pleased that we bought all the others for her birthday 5 months later and she wants them read to her over and over. She even 'reads' them to her younger brother!

Rating:
Summary: Too many sequels
Review: Little Polar Bear, Lars, has experienced several adventures in previous books
about discovering friendship with diverse creatures in unfamiliar settings.
While the first book was charming, and the beautiful illustrations continue to
delight, the story lines have become strained. In this one, Lars' lop-sided
friendship with an oil-smeared puffin, and a brief scary flight in a hot air
balloon were disappointing.
