Quotes from Good Books! "A Bear to Share" (2021) by Jessica Alba, Kelly Sawyer Patricof, Norah Weinstein, and Alicia Más (Illustrator)

“All families are different, honey. Some have less, some have more, and some have just enough… And although things can be unfair and unequal, it doesn’t mean we can’t do something about it.”—from A Bear to Share by Jessica Alba, Kelly Sawyer Patricof, Norah Weinstein and Alicia Más (Illustrator) 

Tiana loves her teddy bear, Bach. She doesn’t mind that he’s a little worn and somewhat torn. So when her mother suggests she make room for a new bear, Tiana can’t believe her ears!

Will Tiana have to lose the one bear she really loves? Or will she find room in her heart for two?

Find out in this endearing tale—brought to life by Alicia Más’s imaginative illustrations—about a young girl who learns the importance of letting go and giving back.

A girl with a big heart who loves her teddy bear, her family, and her best friend, Tiana will appeal to any child trying to understand what it means to give back to others.
