Description
Featuring Bear and Hare from their Caldecott-Honor winning Tops & Bottoms, the Stevens sisters celebrate perseverance and teamwork in this laugh-out-loud story of triumph over trickery. Bear would rather sleep all day than work on his farm, and Fox knows just the kind of help he needs--a donkey! When Fox tricks Bear into buying a donkey egg, Bear can't wait for it to hatch so he can meet his new friend. But donkeys don't come from eggs! And when the "egg" finally opens, Bear gets a fruity surprise. Luckily, Bear doesn't have to face disappointment alone . . . Hare is there to help!

"A laugh-out-loud crowd-pleaser perfect for storytime and small group sharing." -School Library Journal, STARRED review "Another winner from this sister team."-Booklist, STARRED review "Horton Hatches the Egg may immediately leap to mind, but this story has an appeal all its own, with the easygoing expansiveness of a backcountry raconteur."-Publishers Weekly "Stevens' nicely detailed illustrations with their exaggerated, cartoon humor emphasize the delightful silliness."-Kirkus
