The Best Bear Books for Kids

Who can resist a lovable, huggable teddy bear? We are celebrating literary bears of all kinds this week as we compile our favorite bear books for kids. My hands-down beloved favorite is still Winnie the Pooh, but we have many other favorite bears in my house, including Corduroy, Koo, and Paddington, to name a few. So grab your favorite teddy bear and snuggle in with a good book for some quality reading time.
Who is your favorite literary bear?
Happy Reading!

Such great ones listed here. I see so many of our favorites and I just found two “new” ones to request from our library. My middle son is obsessed with Pandas and I thought we had read every panda book but I we have not read Panda’s Earthquake Escape!
So glad you found some new ideas, Mother of 3! Thanks for linking up with us!
