I enjoyed We’re Going on a Bear Hunt because it is fun and has lots of repetition. I liked how the family goes through different places looking for the bear, and then things suddenly become a bit scary when they find it.

It made me think about going on an adventure and what I would do if I actually came across a bear. I would recommend it to young children, especially ages 3–7, because it is easy to join in with and the repeated phrases make it fun to read aloud.

There aren’t any major content warnings, although the bear might be a little scary for some younger children.

Very good book. Young readers - Primary school. I would recommend this due to the repetition used in it and it is super engaging. It reminds me of my time in school.
