About the Book

Welcome friends,
welcome all,
welcome to the
Big Bear Ball!

Deep in the forest, under a full moon and starry sky, bears sway and stomp to the big bear beat. Wake the moles and rouse the foxes! Even a boisterous gator goes for a spin. Who can resist joining in the jump-jiving, splish-splashing midnight fun?

Joanne Ryder’s toe-tapping verse and Steven Kellogg’s jubilant illustrations will set feet moving, fingers snapping, arms swinging, and bodies jumping. Don’t waste a second — leave your two left feet at the shore and come dance until the break of day!
