Información de la editorial

Once upon a moon ago, springtime was missing...When two curious children go in search of Spring, they discover a huge bear sleeping in their garden. But Poppy Bear isn't your typical bear, he has flowers and plants popping up between his paws and sprouting from his fur! Realizing that it's Half-Past Spring, Poppy Bear asks the children to help him plant seeds and flowers for the new season. Among the growling Dogwoods and howling Foxgloves, the children help Poppy Bear herald in Spring, returning to their mother with a bounty of flowers and a greater appreciation of nature. Infused with the real-life magic and wonder of gardening, POPPY BEAR will enchant readers young and old. By encouraging an appreciation for nature, the book is also a positive reminder of how to cherish and respect the environment around us. Ruth Saltzman's lyrical writing springs from her wealth of knowledge and experience in the gardening field, as well as her own deep love for growing plants. Catherine Deeter's beautiful and detailed illustrations of the flowers and Poppy Bear bring this magical story to life. Gold ink throughout the inside of the book adds to the effect of Poppy Bear's magic seedlings.
