This book is about a bear who is sometimes alone and likes his quiet time and his friends who want to be alone with him. When the fox settles down and quiets up, they all become happy. They are alone together.

About a bear that just wants alone and a silly fox who wants to keep him company "being alone," but has a tendency to make a lot of noise even though the bear just wants to sit quietly. Cute book. ( )

Bear, Fox, and Goose return in another simple, charming story fans will find endearing. ( )

I suppose I am feeling just a tad jaded about kids' books, which make up the bulk of my reading a present. We did not need Goose and Bear, in particular, but I suppose they're as good an arbitrary pairing of beasts to teach kids gently didactic things in a cute way as any other (well, not as good as axolotl and giant sloth), and I like to still believe that some kid somewhere has learned the intended lesson about how some aminals like being on their own and some aminal like always hanging and both things are okay.

Fox and Bear discover they have different ideas about "being alone". Beautifully illustrated, onomatapoeia
