I Love You, Mister Bear

"Wickham wastes not a word in the minimalist, largely monologue text (Daddy and Mom utter only a few lines), and she distills the thickly outlined illustrations--mostly vignettes--down to their essential elements. Keeping her storytelling tightly focused, Wickstrom makes every picture and line resonate with Sosha's forthright love and with the pride all children take in their own redemptive powers."Wickstrom, Sylvie K. is the author of 'I Love You, Mister Bear', published 2004 under ISBN 9780060293321 and ISBN 0060293322.
