The Bear's Water Picnic

This evening, we read The Bear's Water Picnic by John Yeoman and Quentin Blake. 


































It's a very heart-warming story about a group of animals going on a picnic and were disturbed by loud croaking noises from the frogs.  The frogs wanted to join in but the friends wanted to move to a quieter spot.  However,  they found themselves in a situation only the frogs could help.  They discovered the benefit of working together and making new friends.

As usual, I almost always enjoy the illustration of the books as much as I enjoyed the story.  This particular book is illustrated by Quentin Blake and he also illustrated a lot of Roald Dahl's book.  Love the vibrant colour, expressiveness and the clear outline of his picture. .
