About
All the students in the class are assigned reading buddies, except for Adelaide. She already has one, a bear! And Adelaide is quite persuasive as she explains to her language arts teacher, Mrs. Fitz-Pea, and the reader, that bears really do make the best reading buddies: they sniff out good books and their claws are just right for turning pages. And the bear looks rather friendly (and studious) in these crayon-bright, contemporary illustrations, making this is must-read picture book for story time!

Reviews
"The pattern-filled illustrations show the two buddies getting lost in their stories and demonstrates how they search for their next good read. They add a great deal to the book's appeal. Full of useful yet subtle hints about how to make reading fun for both young and older reading buddies, this book will find a ready audience at storytime and is also wonderful for one-on-one sharing."
School Library Journal
"Adelaide makes a convincing argument to her teacher that she doesn't need a reading buddy because she already has one - a bear! And he's the best buddy. Which we see in all their illustrated-reading glory!"
Imagination Soup
"Children will surely want their own large brown reading buddies after listening to this book about the joys and challenges of reading."
