From the publisher

Baby Bear likes to play games with Father Bear, and every time they play together Baby Bear learns something new. These board books for preschool children mix songs and counting rhymes with gentle humor and engaging full-color illustrations. Toddlers who have these books read to them will quickly recognize many of the games that they play with their own fathers. The hardboard covers and pages are sturdy enough to withstand rough treatment from baby’s hands. Very small children and loving moms and dads will enjoy sharing these books at nap time, at bedtime, and just about any time.Still another nursery rhyme arranged in a series of charming full-color illustrations brings Father Bear and Baby Bear back together again. Baby takes his first steps, then learns to climb the stairs towards bed. At last he hears a story, then yawns, gets a good-night kiss, and goes to sleep. Walking Around the Garden makes a good companion volume to Oh Where, Oh Where?
