Hat and boot in hand, a boy and a bear set off on a delicious and raucous romp through Berryland. They frolic in strawberry fields forever, rumble and ramble in blackberry brambles, and topple their canoeberry with blueberries. Silly rhymes and a musical beat practically beg to be read aloud, preferably accompanied by dancing. New readers will giggle as they follow the fruit-frenzied pals on their berry adventures. Jamberry builds quickly in intensity and complexity, starting with "One berry, Two berry, Pick me a blueberry," and working up to "Raspberry, Jazzberry, Razzmatazzberry, Berryband, Merryband, Jamming in Berryland." Children will love discovering the subtle touches in Bruce Degen's illustrations: a frog climbing out of a hat, crackers and butter instead of lily pads, and a sign by the raspberry skating rink imploring skaters not to pick the jelly rolls planted nearby. Every character seems giddy with well-fed joy in this veritable jamboree of flavorful fun. Jamberry is a book best enjoyed on a gloomy day with a dollop of vanilla ice cream.

Jesse Bear has his own way of saying his special message and of celebrating every month of the year. Starting off the new year with cheers, Jesse says it with horns in January, colored eggs in April, and a star-filled, flag-waving, band-playing July parade. He says it with Halloween faces in October, and a thankful family around the Thanksgiving table in November. Young children will identify with Jesse Bear's "I love you" -- said in many different ways, but always meaning the same -- and the fun he has in expressing that sentiment throughout the year. Join Jesse Bear in his exuberant celebration of all twelve months, made extra special with Bruce Degen's artwork.
