Publisher Description
Do Mama and Papa bear really expect a little bear to ramble through a hot summer day without getting wet? How can he possibly stay dry as he waters the roses, skips pebbles on the pond, and helps a blackbird with his bath? Young listeners will sympathize with Jesse's playful urge to wade in a puddle with a squirmy worm or "jump and squish and plop" with a green frog. They will definitely delight in the happy surprise ending. John McDonough's exuberant narration colorfully animates this joyous sequel to the best-selling Jesse Bear, What Will You Wear?.

"Such a fun, sing-song rhyme - soothing and as lovely as a warm bath. I read this a gazillion times to my child and ended up buying all of Nancy White Carlstrom's books. Well worth the seek, as sadly, this is not available unless you order a used copy."

" This is a cute book about water. It teaches students about a lot of things that live and/or use water. This would be a good story to read in the summer time. This book also contains a bunch a rhyming words. "

" While reading this book my 14 year old happened to have the hose on outside and got my 3 year old all wet. Fun book to read. "

" A little long for a summer storytime for two year olds, but much better than many other options, and by dint of asking everyone to wiggle like the worm, flap like the bird, croak like the frog, etc., we managed to get through it all right. "
