Editorial Reviews

   From School Library Journal

PreS-Gr 1-Fans of Foley's "Mouse and Bear" books (Viking) will not be disappointed in this latest offering. When Mouse receives a note from Bear saying, "I miss you," she sets off to find him and tell him something important. She looks for him in a tree, behind rocks, in the tall grass, etc., and, in each place, an animal is hiding behind a flap, but there is no sign of Bear. Disappointed, she returns home to find him waiting for her. The simple illustrations are as endearing as Mouse and Bear themselves. While the text is similar to Eric Hill's Where's Spot? (Putnam, 1988), the sweetness of the characters, their obvious fondness for one another, and the message of friendship freshen the story.-C. J.
