Join happy little bear as he goes to market. Every day he visits a different shop to buy something new. What does he want today? On Monday, it is the bakery. Will he get a bright red apple, a pretty bird, a pair of shoes or two cherry-topped cupcakes? On Tuesday, bear goes to the pet shop. Will he buy a potted palm, a hot dog or a guinea pig? Every spread offers a fun "guessing game" story with a selection of items from shop displays; when the big flap is opened, there is Bear buying the right object for his needs. Not only will this charmingly illustrated tale teach toddlers about many kind of shops, it helps them to learn the days of the week, too! Welcome Back! This long-out-of-print children's favourite, illustrated by the Caldecott-winning artist, Arnold Lobel, is back to delight children once more - with brighter colours, a new cover design and a whole new life.
