Description
"Lets scare bear!" says the tiny mouse. But the pint-size bullys plan backfires in this riff on a Japanese folktale.
An ALA Notable Childrens Book
Mouse, Fox, Spider, and Snake all want to scare Bear. But Bear is the bravest animal in the forest--nothing scares Bear.
Except, maybe, one thing.
Bear says that hes scared of manju cakes. Armed with that knowledge, the animals hatch a plan to scare Bear with manju cakes. . . . lots and lots of them. . . . only to learn that the only scary thing is how much Bear loves to eat them!
Yuko Katakawas bright art is full of detail and humor, from Snakes bow and glasses to Spiders web-spun comments on their ill-fated tricks. Based on "Scary Manju," a tale in the Japanese oral tradition known as rakugo, Lets Scare Bear is a trickster tale that reminds us that bullies come in all shapes and sizes--and that when we share instead, everyone wins.
