COMMUNITY REVIEWS
A bear goes to work submitted by andrewjmac on June 25, 2017, 12:56pm Surprisingly touching story of the day in the life of a simple bear and the role he plays in his community. Takes its character inspiration from Henry David Thoreau (with multiple references to other authors) and and illustration style that is influenced by Cezanne and cubist painters. Also, can be made even more enjoyable by using New England accents when reading aloud.
