Warm Clothes for Bear is a lovely story about sharing. Its pages are almost like thrown out of rainbow. Picture books such as this makes my heart gushy. I think children would love to see this.

This is a heart-warming short story with a lovely message of kindness & thinking of others. There's also scope to encourage conversation with young children in a read-aloud situation & plenty of uncomplicated detail in the illustrations to creat 'find it' type games after reading. Simple activities could also be planned directly related to the story to explore the children's own creativity.

This story is about a young bear who goes outside to play in the snow with his friends but finds they all need something from him. This story has beautiful illustrations and I enjoyed the concept of giving others what they lack. This story also has great examples of dialogue for younger readers to model after. I could see myself having this book in my own classroom library collection.

Warm Clothes for Bear is a very cute children’s book. Bear gets dressed in warm clothes to play outside in the snow. Unfortunately bears friends are not as prepared so are cold and bear helps them out. This is a very cute story about friendship.

The pictures in Warm Clothes for Bear are excellent.

I recommend this for anyone looking for a children’s book.

Awww my heart is melting!
This bear is wonderful, the perfect little book for your young ones. Cuddle with them in winter and read them this book. Nice pictures, sweet story and great moral. If you have problem to get your kids dress up for winter this might help and the friendship message is super sweet.

I requested and received an e-ARC of this book from Sam Loman and Clavis Publishing through NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion.

I loved this story! Bear is a very generous and caring friend and ensures that all his friends are taken care of but forgets to take care of himself. We then get to see Bear’s friends repay his kindness and take care of him. Such a simple story but one filled with caring and sharing. I also loved the illustrations; the animals were faces were so animated.

My son loved the pictures. The formatting is still a little strange no matter where I loaded the story. It's a great lesson for kids during the winter as well.

'Warm Clothes for Bear' is a sweet, whimsical book about being generous to friends. Bear is dressed for cold weather on a snow day but ultimately gives all of his warm clothes to his friends because they are cold. Ultimately, Bear goes home early because he is cold but his friends show up for him and are generous at the end. I really liked the colorful illustrations and the kind message of the story. I would recommend this book for children ages 3-6.

Thank you NetGalley and Clavis Publishing for providing this ARC.

A very sweet and charming story about sharing and caring, The story revolves a little bear who slowly starts to give away his clothes to his friends as they don't have them to play in the snow. It's a great story for kids and to teach kids to share and care about others. I had fun reading it and definitely find it to be so sweet.

A kind lesson in kindness and generosity. I enjoyed the writing of the book and the dialogues between the characters, but I was disappointed on the illustrations point. Most of the animals look all the same, no matter they are bear or squirrel and it is a pitty for the book as for the target audience - preschool children - an inspired illustration makes the lecture even more enjoyable.

This book was a solid picture book for children. Some of these types of books are very enjoyable for adults, too, this one was definitely made just for children.
I really liked the art style. It looked amazing. The story was too childish for a 25-years old adult. This was a cute story about friendship. I love it when these picture books are heartwarming.
It was an ok picture book. I really recommend it for children, it has a good message and the pictures are beautiful, but as adult, it's not outstanding.

My kids loved this book. The pictures are very cute and the story was very sweet. I had a lot of difficulty reading the book because it downloaded in a strange format with the pages cut in half and were out of order. It does not affect my rating but feedback for future downloads.

I like this one. It's one of those books that I will want to recommend to be read to younger kids. It talks about being a true friend - a person who never fail to help friends in need no matter what the situation is. I like how he helped his friends without expecting anything from them but in the end, everyone was there for him. It's lovely story with simple yet beautiful illustrations.

A poignant story about caring for others and caring for yourself! Bear wears warm clothes outside but he gives them piece by piece to his friends to help keep them warm, then he is left freezing himself. The lesson is that sharing is good, but you also have to take care of yourself. And it's better if everyone starts off with warm clothes to begin with. i think this book will open up conversations with little ones about how to share well.

Cute book about sharing with friends. Could possibly be used in a winter themed story time depending on the audience.

A pleasant but unsurprising book for the very young reader at wintertime. Bear wants to enjoy life in the snowy outside, as do all his animal friends (even the ones that would normally eat each other, but that's a given, I suppose) – but they're not exactly as well-prepared as he is. Will his generosity in doing the striptease for his friends' sake in the snow pay off? You know it will – just as I knew this would be such a cartoonishly simple read that the warm clothes for the young Bear would never go as far as including trousers. So yes, he gets dressed up in mittens, ear warmers, scarf, gloves, coat, hat, jumper, survival gear, mosquito net (OK perhaps not the latter) but never wears any pants or anything on his knackers. That Disneyfied idiocy aside, this is a decent heart-warmer for the colder months – but will probably not be leapt on the second winter around. Also, fur.
