Format:Hardcover
'We're Going on a Bear Hunt' has been one of the favourite stories for children at the nursery where I work for years. It is a beautiful and well-constructed story, with nice use of repetitive language patterns that children can join in with or re-enact.
I was a little concerned by the idea of a DVD version: I didn't want to see one of the children's favourite stories ruined by over-production.
I needn't have worried. The DVD is beautifully-produced. It doesn't detract from the story in any way: the animation is simply an animated version of the illustrations from the book and the narration (by Kevin Whately and Emelia Fox) is just right. The added music track isn't intrusive, and it's used to partially set the words from the book to music. It's hard to remember now that the story didn't always seem to have this tune.
Presenting book and DVD together is a lovely idea.

Format:Hardcover
Well recommended book. Very good descriptive, rhythmic verses. Easy to read and engage children with. Fun family outdoor adventure! Children can sing-a-long too!
Format:Paperback
My daughter's most favourite book in the whole world when she was 2 years old. She would recount the story with facial expression, muttered words and a sing song voice. It took a while to realise which story she was telling, but it was soon we could all repeat off by heart. Great for young children.
