Beschreibung des Verlags
Bear is very, very, very GLAD today! He’s taking his first ballet class. But he’s a little nervous too. This sweet and silly picture book is an honest exploration of feelings that little ones—and grown-ups!—are sure to relate to.
Bear is so excited that today is dance day! He has his new leggings, slippers, and tutu, and he is ready to go. But when he gets there, he feels a little shy, a little unsure, and even a little afraid. What can make him feel better? Dancing, of course!
This charming companion to Mad, Mad Bear is a celebration of how stepping out and doing the things we love makes us feel happy…even if we are a little apprehensive at first!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Gee's Mad, Mad Bear turns glad when it's time for dance class in this simple but emotion-filled follow-up. Clad in new leggings, new ballet slippers, and a pink tutu that generates a crinkly-eyed, page-filling grin, Bear happily prepares for dance class. His elation is palpable as he gracefully leaps out the door, but jitters set in at the studio. In gentle scenes, Gee sensitively captures Bear feeling first "a little shy" in his tutu and leggings a mix of the other kids' outfits. Luckily, music brings a turning point, eliciting "twirly" feelings that Bear expresses through dance, making him "glad" once more. Rendered in black Prismacolor and digital candy colors, Gee's thoughtful illustrations sympathetically depict Bear's shifting emotions in a way that's realistic and relatable. Ages up to 8.
