Description
Little Bear feels the world around him. He feels his bed rumble when Dad Bear wakes him up in the morning and the floor shake when his teacher stomps to get his attention. But something else is missing, like when his friends tell jokes that he isn't sure he understands or when all around him Little Bear hears the question, "Can bears ski?" When Dad Bear takes him to see an expert, Little Bear learns that he has been experiencing deafness and will start wearing hearing aids. This picture book tells a story of discovery and adaptation. With the love and support of his family, Little Bear navigates a new world that is loud and unfamiliar. The story draws on the experiences of the creators, who have shared their own stories about living with deafness. A lyrical and heartwarming tale for children and parents alike. Hardcover, 40 pages.
