Descripción: From the incomparable host of “Late Night with Seth Meyers” comes a hilarious new picture book.When you're a bear who is easily scared, it's hard to have friends. Fortunately, Bear has one: Rabbit, who is very brave. One day, Rabbit urges Bear to face his fears and embark on an adventure together. However, things don't entirely go as planned, and the two friends learn the true meaning of bravery.Equal parts hilarious and touching, this funny tale of adventure, bravery, and daring rescue will both inspire the adventurous spirit in all of us and make us laugh along the way. With the unfailingly witty voice of one of America's favorite comedians, Seth Meyers's debut picture book is bound for hilarity history.From School Library JournalK-Gr 2—A lovable bear and bubbly rabbit learn a lesson about courage and care in this funny story that can easily settle young readers into a lengthy, satisfying read-aloud experience about the best friends' day of adventure. Bear, who is afraid of everything, reluctantly joins Rabbit as she does her best to help introduce him to new outdoor places. Readers will hoot with laughter at the silliness of Bear's antics to avoid facing his fears and the back-and-forth chatter between Bear and Rabbit, while the ending will surprise even Bear, in the best sense. Meyers employs excellent action words and slips in clever quips to shape the friends' personalities and interact with the reading audience. Sayegh's entertaining digital illustrations, which integrate some real-world textures for nature elements, build multiple perspectives around Bear's easy-to-read body language and match sequential phrases with grouped vignettes.
