Product description
A timeless classic with powerful themes of exploration and discovery. We’re going on a bear hunt! Through the long wavy grass, the thick oozy mud and the swirling, whirling snowstorm. Rustle rustle! Splish splosh! Squelch! Will the family find a great big bear today? With heaps of noises to shout out loud and a huge surprise at the end, this lyrical story from former Children’s Laureate Michael Rosen deserves to be a part of every childhood.
This bestseller supports the NLS at Key Stage 1 as:- a classic story with predictable and patterned language
- an action rhyme
- a story by a significant children’s author.
Also available: Read and Respond activities to accompany We’re Going on a Bear Hunt.
“A dramatic and comic masterpiece… Beautifully produced, written and illustrated, this is a classic.” The Independent on Sunday

Kelly
on 11 February 2012Fantastic Book
Fabulous book for young children. Fantastic for pre schoolers as phrases are repeated throughout the book. Will also help those learning to read to remember repeat words.
Downside is you'll have the story stuck in your head for a while after reading :)

on 18 February 2013I used to love is book when I was little, and I still do!!! I found that this book really gave me confidence reading and that not all books are boring! I love the pictures that go with it and how colourful they are so that it attracts little children. This book is without doubt for younger readers but I wouldn’t still recommend for older readers, for a but of a laugh!!!

Fumatory
on 3 March 2011I did like this book when I was younger. But, I find it’s a bit too repetitive as I’m older now and would be good for children aged 5-10 years. Once I read it, I had to act it out. It is fun if you act it out, but I feel I am too old for it now. It’s great as a play. But because it’s a short story, the next time you read it you know exactly what’s going to happen. I would recommend, but only for younger children to read.

Timeless, fun classic.
A friend bought this book for my son years ago, she told me it was not to be read but sung. I said how do you sing a whole story book. She showed me a video of Micheal Rosen doing so. That book became a firm favourite and passed from my son to my daughter who at age 7 still loves it. What a fun way to spend time with children.
