review 1: Bug wants Bear to play but Bear doesn’t feel like it. Bug tries every trick to talk Bear into playing, but Bug only succeeds in making Bear angry.“Chameleon gave Bear an idea. She would hide from Bug! She leaned against a tree, thinking brownthoughts. But Bear didn’t blend into the bark as well as she’d hoped…and along came Bug,who spotted her right away. ‘Hide and seek!’ said Bug. ‘Is that what we’re playing?’”Bear uses things he sees around him to try to find ways to escape Bug and that’s interesting. I also like how the author and illustrator move the text on the page to replicate Bug’s ways of speaking.
review 2: Sometimes it takes a moment of reflection to realize that we haven't treated someone the way we'd like to be treated. B
... moreug and Bear are best friends, but sometimes friends don't feel like playing, and feel like napping instead! Learning to express yourself in a kind and understanding way can be hard for children- and bears. So, when Bear hurts Bug's feelings, even a cozy cave can't make him feel good inside. This book makes an excellent tool for teaching children about respecting the feeling's of others. Reading Level: 1st-3rdInterest Level: Preschool-3rd less

While Bug and Bear are friends, it reads more like dealing with a younger sibling.

My saccharine meter beeped steadily. "Cute" isn't always a good thing.
