For brave hunters and bear-lovers, the classic chant-aloud by Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury in a large board book edition. We're going on a bear hunt. We're going to catch a big one. Will you come too? For a quarter of a century, readers have been swishy-swashying and splash-sploshing through this award-winning favourite. Follow and join in the family's excitement as they wade through the grass, splash through the river and squelch through the mud in search of a bear. What a surprise awaits them in the cave on the other side of the dark forest! Review: A Classic That’s Built to Last — Perfect for Little Hands! - I love gifting books that create lasting memories — and We’re Going on a Bear Hunt is an absolute classic. I sent this board book edition to my 2-year-old granddaughter, and it’s quickly become a favourite in her growing collection. The story itself is timeless — full of rhythm, repetition, and adventure — and it's such a joy to read aloud. The illustrations are just as lovely as I remember, and they really draw little ones into the journey. What I really appreciate is the super-sturdy board book format. The pages are thick and durable, which makes it perfect for toddlers who are still learning how to turn pages gently. No tears, no bent corners — and it’s the right size for little hands to hold. One small downside is that the smaller size means the pictures aren’t as big or detailed as in the original picture book version. But for toddlers, this compact format is just right — it’s tough enough to survive daily reading and even a bit of chewing. 😉 This is one of those books that makes storytime feel like an adventure — and I love that we can read it “together” over video chat, too. Definitely recommend for babies, toddlers, and any young reader starting their library. Review: Perfect! - Amazing item. Bought used in good condition and it looks new. Good story and my daughter is currently obsessed with it. The cardboard pages make it much more durable and protects it from our 7m old.

Black and white illustration!
Good book on adventure. But I would like a toddler book to have colorful engaging illustrations. Some pages of this book are black and white which I don't like. I think this book is suitable for age 3 and up.

Super pour initier son enfant à l’anglais
Je cherchais des livres en anglais à lire à mon enfant de trois ans et il a adoré celui ci, il y a un rythme et une répétition qui rend cela plus facile à comprendre et à apprendre. C’est peut être tiré d’une chanson. L’histoire est mignonne et rigolote.

Molto bello
Super resistente quindi posso anche farlo sfogliare alla mia bimba di 7 mesi senza aver paura che lo strappi. Cercando su YouTube si trova la canzoncina pubblicata dall’autore del libro che é veramente facile da imparare

Interesting book
It is cute following them on their adventure. My 3-year old liked the river part. He usually lose attention after they reach the cave. Hopefully he would appreciate it when he’s older.

Gorgeous book
Such a gorgeous book to add to the Nursery Library. I tear up thinking of the time when I can read this to our first born Grandchild due Match 2026.
