Editorial Review / Publisher's Information:
Product Description
The third book in the bestselling Bear series, now in board book format  Thirty-five years after their first groundbreaking collaboration, the creators of Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? and Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? reunited to address the important topic of animal conservation. A Bald Eagle soars, a Spider Monkey swings, a Macaroni Penguin struts, and a Red Wolf sneaks through Bill Martin Jr’s rhythmic text and Eric Carle’s vibrant images, and all are watched over by our best hope for the future—a dreaming child.
We are delighted to offer Bill Martin Jr and Eric Carle’s beloved tribute to endangered animals in a board book edition.
Amazon.com Review
Fans of Bill Martin Jr. and Eric Carle's Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? and Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? will be delighted to see another title in this lilting call and response series. Much like their earlier picture books, Panda Bear features a string of fine feathered (and furry and scaly) friends watching over each other. In this book, however, all the animals are endangered, from a swinging spider monkey to a strutting macaroni penguin (kids will get a kick out of that name!) to a splashing sea lion. Carle’s trademark tissue paper collages will be as familiar--and welcome--as the text ("Whooping Crane, Whooping Crane, what do you see?" "I see a black panther strolling by me."); young readers will quickly get the hang of the rhythm and join right in. The book concludes on a hopeful note, with a dreaming child seeing the ten f! eatured animals "all wild and free--/ that’s what I see!" Martin includes a note on endangered species that may spark concern and interest in older readers--our hope for these disappearing creatures. (Ages 3 to 8) --Emilie Coulter

• I Enjoy Reading This Book To My Son
11 August, 2008
I love the illustrations in this book of all the endangered animals--they are gorgeous and make reading it to my son a real pleasure. I even learned about a new animal via this book, the macaroni penguin, which I had to look up the first time I read it. I think this is a great addition to a child's library.

A favorite of our 18-month-old since she was less than 1. Only problem is she likes flip through it faster than I can read.

Another great book in the series. This one has a great message about protecting the animals children grow to love while reading Erin Carle.

• The Illustrations Make This One A Keeper
14 December, 2007
"Panda Bear, Panda Bear, What Do You See?" is a very simple book, with repetitive text that makes it easy for youngsters to read. Not being familiar with the other titles by author Bill Martin or illustrator Eric Carle, I can't compare it to any of the other titles by this duo. What I can say is that the animals chosen for this particular book are endangered. From the Macaroni penguin to the red wolf, these creatures will captivate young minds.
Although the repetitious lines may bore parents when reading this book to their kids, the illustrations will keep their attention. Carle has made some wonderful creations on the pages of this book and they are what really make this book worth buying.
The endangered species message may be a bit over the little minds that will be reading or listening to this tale, but there's nothing wrong with giving kids this sort of knowledge at an early age. This book, primarily due to the pictures, is an excellent early stages book for children in kindergarten through second grade.

As a teacher I found this book extremely useful, especially since I had a lot of New Entrants this term. The text is very predictable and this builds up confidence and self esteem very quickly.
