Nancy White Carlstrom is the author of more than fifty books for children, including nine other titles in the Jesse Bear series, Who Said Boo?, and Wild Wild Sunflower Child Anna. Ms. Carlstrom lives in Fairbanks, Alaska, with her husband, David, and their two son, Jesse and Josh. And while the olive too far away for frequent visits with their family, they enjoy traveling to see their family as often as possible.
Bruce Degen has illustrated all the Jesse Bear books. He is the author and illustrator of Jamberry, and the illustrator of the acclaimed Magic School Bus series. He has taught courses on art and the writing and illustrating of children's books to children and adults. Mr. Degen, his wife, and their two sons, Benjamin and Alexander, live in Connecticut in a renovated farmhouse with ducks on the pond, bats in the barn, and a family tree that Jesse Bear himself would love to climb.
PreS-K‘The ever-popular Jesse Bear is back and very excited that someone is coming to visit him. Excited, that is, until he finds out that his guest is his cousin Sara who's "...older and no fun./She's bossy and she's bigger/And she bullies everyone." His opinion of Sara soon changes, however, and in the end he is sorry to see her go. Carlstrom's bouncy, energetic verse and Degen's bright, ink-and-watercolor artwork are sure to entertain youngsters. Once again, the text and illustrations work hand in hand to portray the humorous trials and tribulations of this adorable, well-loved bear. Another winner.‘Rachel Fox, Port Washington Public Library, NY
