Description
Bear and Hare try to reach some juicy pears, but they need some help. Hare finds three chairs, but is it fair that Hare has two chairs and Bear only one? When they have the same, Hare still can't reach the pears! So a little friend teaches them that fair isn't always everyone getting the same thing ... with hilarious results! A beautifully simple picture book that considers, what is fair? The answer is not always as simple as you'd think.
Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"The text brims with words that rhyme with pear, and endearing Briticisms ("Bother!") are sprinkled throughout. Vivid, stylized, digitally rendered illustrations mirror the whimsy and lightness of touch in this lesson in fairness and equity for the very young." -- The Horn Book Magazine
"The cheerful, naive illustrations-produced digitally with ink and pencil textures-feature red, yellow, and green pears, plus backgrounds abuzz with fluttery insects. Set against this vibrant milieu, Doherty creates an earthy resonance between black Bear, with a brown muzzle and paws, and brown Hare, sporting black-tipped ears." -- School Library Journal
"This is a perfect book to open discussions of what kids think is fair - or not." -- Meridian Magazine, "Newton's Book News"
