Ilustration As Books Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? (Bill Martin's Bears #1)

Subtexts: perspective, surveillance, paranoia!

I had to read this aloud maybe a hundred nights in a row before I noticed what the text was plainly saying: everyone thinks they are being watched! And ironically, they are the ones doing the watching! From the titular brown bear who is certain that the red bird is watching him/her, each animal is watching an animal and projecting that the very animal they watch, is watching them!

In reality, none of the projected watching is happening. Each animal is watching a different animal, save for the children, who imagine that ALL the animals watch them, when in fact it is the children who gaze out at every animal.

Here are the lessons of the book:
-the people you think are watching you aren't
-actually, it is YOU who is doing the watching!
-animal colors in real life may vary from depictions [though Franz Marc painted some lovely blue horses and I do hope their inclusion here is a nod to him]

Judgment Appertaining To Books Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? (Bill Martin's Bears #1)

Truly a classic... read it to two very hyperactive boys today and it calm them immediately. I had to read it to them 6 times and I love the it as much as they did! A true classic!!!!!!!!!!!

What Do You See? I see another favorite of my grandson's, with rhyming repetition and bright, colorful drawings of animals and people.

I wasn't really into this book when I was little, but this is my daughter's favorite book- so I have to give it 5 star props. Whenever we get to the black sheep, she yells out "BAAAAAA!"Many mornings she wakes up and demands, "BOOK!" and if I don't pick this one, she yells, "Noooooooo! BOOOOK!" until I read her Brown Bear...

I can't recall how many times I've read this for storytime over the years. A lot. That's the answer. It's a favorite for all.

I read this with my children. Classic kids book! They have memorized it they love so much!



My children loved this book when they where small. A firm favourite on my bookshelf.
