Grandma Nancy gave Mary P.B. Bear's Birthday Party when she was two. This book has stood the multiple-child test--it was Mary's favorite book for a season and now it's one of Maggie's favorites, too! Not only is this book about two things that appeal to all children, birthdays and bears, it is also written rebus-style, with pictures in place of key words here and there. Mary and Maggie have both enjoyed helping me read this book by chiming in with the word during a pause!
In this story, it is P.B.'s fourth birthday. First, he makes a cake and then rides on a train to the country with his friends to have a birthday picnic. P.B. opens his presents and cards from his friends and they all play with them. Then, they head back to town. P.B. says good-bye to his friends and gets ready to go to bed with his presents! We never tire of reading this book!
