Tuesday Storytime: Teddy Bears

These were chosen by my coworker, and they're too cute.

Waiting for Goliath
Antje Damm
ISBN: 978776571413
A cute little bear waits patiently on a park bench for days and nights and seasons for his friend Goliath to arrive. Despite a very clear Waiting for Godot vibe, the friend DOES show at the end, and there's a very good reason for things taking so long. Cute, but slow (pun intended).

Teddy Bear Teddy Bear (classic nursery rhyme) (board book)
illustrated by Michael Hague
ISBN:0060733047
Bright colors and cheery spreads keep the rhyme moving along smoothly, although the "go upstairs/say your prayers" verse is included, which may make some families uncomfortable.

Room for Bear
Ciara Gavin
ISBN: 9780385754736
A sweet story of adoption and focusing on similarities instead of differences, and in working together to make things work for everyone. Very cute, and very sweet natured. There is a sequel.
