By Eric Carle (Illustrator)
Part of the Brown Bear and Friends series
A series of animals see and interact with each other in a classroom setting.
A big happy frog, a plump purple cat, a handsome blue horse, and a soft yellow duck– all parade across the pages of this delightful classic children’s book, Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? Children will immediately respond to Eric Carle’s flat, boldly colored collages. Combined with Bill Martin’s singsong text, they create unforgettable images of these endearing animals.
"Red Bird, Red Bird, What do you see? I see a yellow duck looking at me."
— from the book
There's a red bird. Who is looking at the red bird? Is it a yellow or blue duck?

“This book is a perennial favorite for a reason: its call-and-response pattern makes it easy for even very young children to engage with the book. It lends itself particularly well to incorporating elements of rhythm--clapping, snapping, etc. Eric Carle's classic illustrative style is bold and bright, and the animals stand out well on their plain white backgrounds. This book is great for reading to babies, and can be enjoyed for years.”
