"We're going on a bear hunt. / We're going to catch a big one. / What a beautiful day! / We're not scared." The whole family embarks on a good old fashioned bear hunt, with all the trials and tribulations that entails. The much loved classic tale is translated for the Chinese bilingual market. The wonderful watercolour illustrations often range across two pages, and capture the movement and emotion of the children well. But was the fantastic journey real or imagined? A real winner, for the story and the illustrations.
