A rollicking picture book that celebrates finding warmth and shelter during a springtime storm.

This is the lair the bears shared.
This is the hair that came from the lair the bears shared.
This is the bird that borrowed the hair
to build a nest
in a tall, tall tree
with branches that thrashed in thunder that crashed . . .
and the story of how animals find home and family among it all!


With rhythmic text by Kim Norman and adorable artwork by David Walker, The Bears Shared is a great read-aloud for animal lovers, nature enthusiasts, and children and grown-ups with love to share.

What reviewers said

"In this 'The House That Jack Built'–style tale, wayward wisps of hair trigger a chain reaction resulting in an unlikely union of bears and birds."
