About this book
Bear and Bird may not always understand each other, but they both want nothing more than for their best friend to be happy. So when they each find today's date circled in red, they obviously assume it's the other one's birthday (so sorry, Snail!). And when Bird puts her pal through his paces--to prove he's himself and not his look-alike cousin--she finds a sweet way to soothe an unhappy Bear when the test is done. Whether it's Bird bravely helping Bear to retrieve a ball from a cave full of stinky goo (or so they've heard) or both of them putting their faith in a flying umbrella when Bird blithely removes the candy trail meant to lead them home, Jarvis's subtle humor and sweet illustrations create a charming world that young readers are eager to come back to.
