A book review "Bears"




Today, I read a book “Bears”. The book is written by Emma Helbrough, and designed by Michelle Lawrence and Josephine Thompson. The book is composed 17 contents. 17 are Hairy bears, Young cubs, Snowy dens, Growing up, Furry coats, Paw and claws, Lunchtime, Sneaky hunters, Fishing fun, Climbing trees, Standing up, Super swimmers, Hot and cold, Playtime, Glossary of bear words, Web sites to visit, and Index. I think that I read this book because I like bears very much and it is interesting for me to know many kinds of bears. Everyone is afraid of bears, but I don’t think so. In fact, bears are very kind. First, I talk about Hairy bears. The picture of brown bears is big and they have small eyes and ears. My heart was comforted, began to get over my pain. The next is Young cubs. Baby bears called cubs. They are born in winter in small caves or hollow trees. Cubs are very cute and very small better than mother bears. Mother bears feed cubs on breast milk. As you can see the picture, cubs and their mother are bound by rigid ties. Cubs spend most of the time in their den sleeping and drinking milk. After that, I talk about Snowy dens. Polar bear cubs are born in winter too. Polar bear cubs have very white fur, which turns creamy as they grow older. Snow dens are very warm inside, so polar bear cubs take a while to get used to the cold outside. It is very difficult for me to spend a day in the South Pole region, but it is a matter of course for them. Next topic is Growing up. In the spring, cubs leave the den with their mother. Cubs spend a lot of time exploring, but they stay close to their mother. Mother bears usually take care of cubs. It is very hard for me to take care of child. Because mother bears are wonderful. I look at he picture, I want to be a mother. Next are Furry coats. All bears are covered in thick fur. The cubs grab a chunk of her fur with their front paws. They scramble up and hold on tight. Then she stands up. I often wear cloth of fur. I like fur, but fur is very expensive for me. The sixth topic is Paws and claws. Some bears use their claws like a comb to keep their fur clean and neat. Pandas have an extra bone in each paw. They use it to grip bamboo plants to eat. Panda is very cute. I remember that I went to zoo with my family and relations when I was 5 years old. The 7 topic is Lunch time. Most bears eat something such as plant, fruit, nuts and insects. We eat something too. A sun bear knocks a bees’ neat out of a tree with its paws. It uses its long claws to break into the bees’ nest. Then, it licks up the honey inside with its long tongue. Bears like honey very much. The same goes for us, too. They eat honey everyday. Some bears eat thousands of caterpillars in a day. After that, I talk about Sneaky hunters. Brown bears pounce on small animals, such as squirrels and mice. They will even jump into water to hunt for food. It is very smart to hunt seal pups which live in tunnels under the ice. The next is Fishing fun. Bears that live near rivers go fishing. They catch and eat huge salmon. Brown bears usually catch about 15 salmon in a day. Brown bears are wild animals. The tenth topic is Climbing trees. A cub digs its claws into a tree trunk. It grips the trunk with its back paws. Then it pulls itself up with its front paws. I like climbing when I was a child as bears. The eleventh topic is Standing up. Bears also stand up to rub their backs on trees, so they can shake off loose fur. The next topic is Super swimmers. Polar bears are very good swimmers. They can swim for hours without stopping. I like swimming too. I went to a swimming school when I was a junior school student. I had gone to swimming school for 9 years. Those days are very nice. And then, Hot and cold. Bears live in many different places. Some live in hot forests and others live high up in cold mountains. In Japan, the four seasons are clearly distinguished. My favorite season is spring because spring is very beautiful and comfortable. The scenery of this picture is very beautiful. The final topic is Playtime. Cubs are very playful, but adult bears play too. I am playful too. Bears often lie on their backs and play with sticks and stones. I want to play with cubs when I see the picture. This story is all. I’m very glad to finish reading the book. I want to go to zoo one more time, and I want to look at bears and cubs. Shall we go to zoo together?
