The tree house is a place to gather, and be together in wonder of their special place in the middle of the ocean. Everyone is welcome at the treehouse, and everyone is free to read, and be at peace. This is a gook book to incorporate imagination, and have kids develop their own ideas of what is going on. As the reader, I can guide them into discussion about inclusion, diversity, and cooperation.

This is a beautiful picture book with no text. This book allows the readers to create their own story just by looking a the pictures. It seems like the story is about a polar bear that finds a tree house and he invites different animals to come and enjoy the tree house as it is very big and looks a place where they can share stories and have fun with each other. One day all the animals had to go back home before winter comes so the only ones that stayed in the tree house were the polar bear and his friend grizzly bear. I think that I could use this book with students so that they use their own imagination to come up with their own stories. I got a little bit nostalgic with this book because even though the book does not have text, the images expresses how it feels after meeting with a lot of people you love and when they have to leave after having a good time together.

I liked that this book only had pictures. I feel like that way children can create their own stories and narrative as they go through the book. I enjoyed the images it was very pretty to look at.

Illustrations with no written narrative. It allows the reader to come up with the story as you go page to page. I would have this in my classroom. ( )

A polar bear rides across the ocean on a whale to a large tree house. He is later then joined by a brown bear where they then spend time together. As time passes by the water recedes, and new seasons come and pass. This wordless story uses various colors, and illustrations to portray the bear's adventure and how the environment changes before their eyes. This is one of my favorite books we read in class. The use of its illustrations and colors was beyond incredible because you use your own imagination to create the story. I love that there are no words because many types of children can connect to this. This book is very open-ended and I truly enjoyed the experience. I know that many children would love to get creative with this and come up with their own stories or just enjoy the pictures and focus on the development of their imagination.
