About the Book
"Chipmunk and Bear spend a snowy day together and discover that they like to do all of the same things"--Book Synopsis
Chipmunk and Bear share a snowy adventure in this easy-to-read Level C book. "I love snow!" says Bear. "Me too!" says Chipmunk. Despite their differences in size, Chipmunk and Bear have a lot in common. When Bear decides to go play in the snow, Chipmunk is eager to tag along. The two friends have fun skiing, skating, and building a snowman--although Chipmunk needs a hand now and then in the deep snow! This simple tale of friendship is perfect for early readers, with simple, highly repetitive text and four or less sentences per spread. Valeri Gorbachev's charming art adds detail and helps support understanding of the story--and readers are sure to smile at the furry friends' wintery adventures. For more Bear and Chipmunk, don't miss Valeri Gorbachev's Not Me! The award-winning I Like to Read(R) series focuses on guided reading levels A through G, based upon Fountas and Pinnell standards. Acclaimed author-illustrators--including winners of Caldecott, Theodor Seuss Geisel, and Coretta Scott King honors--create original, high quality illustrations that support comprehension of simple text and are fun for kids to read with parents, teachers, or on their own! For readers who've mastered basic sight words, Level C books feature slightly longer sentences and a wider range of high-frequency words than Level B books. Level C books are suitable for mid-to-late kindergarten readers. When Level C is mastered, follow up with Level DReview Quotes
A Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year "The relatively large format of the I Like to Read series offers plenty of space for Gorbachev's expressive ink drawings, brightened with watercolors. Reflecting the dialogue, the artwork sets a companionable tone. With its large-print text, lively artwork, and simple story of friendship, this book will please beginning readers and pre-readers alike."--Booklist "From their adventures in the snow to a warm snuggle in their tiny and huge beds, Bear and Chipmunk are friends that new readers will want to turn to again and again."--Kirkus Reviews "With this comical twist and the visual jokes in his lively illustrations, Gorbachev creates an entertaining book for those who are just beginning to read."--The Horn Book "The large, joyful watercolor and ink illustrations are enchanting and will help children make predictions regarding unfamiliar words. Well done."--School Library Journal
