About this deal

This is the what the reader will question while reading this story. What else can Big Bear do to help Little Bear? What if Little Bear never falls asleep at night-time? The reader becomes curious as to where the story is going which at the same time makes it an intriguing read. The story also has humour as Little Bear seems to be driving Big Bear crazy! I have come across this book whilst on my first placement in a Special School. My severe learning difficulties nursery class are reading the book as part of their literacy lessons which they absolutely love. However as they are so young and don’t yet have the cognitive ability to have this book read to them fully as a class they have the story read to them as a sensory story – which I have found fascinating. wonder why the little bear cannot sleep. { possible questions during} I wonder why Little Bear is so

dark. Why couldn’t Little Bear fall asleep? Because he was surrounded by darkness. Why did Big Bear take important event from beginning} Little bear was afraid of the dark. { most important event from middle} I absolutely love this book! It has such emotional importance to me as my third daughter had breathing difficulties when she was born and spent the first 5 weeks of her life in NICU. My eldest daughter chose this book from home to take to hospital and read to her. It ended up being the only book we read during those long and heartbreaking 5 weeks. My daughter suffered severe brain damage during her birth and as such we are unsure about her future ie. we are somewhat ‘in the dark’ and very scared. It was relatable to us on so many levels; a little baby bear being afraid of the dark/the unknown and the big bear trying to help by shedding some light on the situation. The bit about them going out of the cave into the big dark unknown and the little bear being scared resonated with us as we were terrified about taking our baby out into the unknown. Amazing. Can’t read it now without bawling my eyes out. However, even if you havent had a horrendous and dramatic birth experience it’s still a very sweet and funny book and I highly recommend it as a bedtime story. This is a story about a little bear that is afraid of the dark, yet overcomes this fear with the help of Big Bear, a portrayal similar to parent and child and hence easy to relate to the comfort sought and the comfort given. Here is a list of reading skills, strategies and ideas you can use to create a wonderful lesson using this book.Little Bear couldn’t sleep because he was afraid of the dark. { solution} Big Bear brought Little Bear to the dark outside to show him how the big , yellow moon lights things up. Th is helped Little Bear fall asleep. This story depicts patience and kindness on the part of big bear, where he goes to great lengths to help little bear realise that the dark is nothing to be afraid of. This book is about Little Bear who cannot fall asleep because he's afraid of the dark. Little Bear tosses and turns as he tries to sleep but to no avail. Big Bear sees Little Bear in distress so he stops reading his book and gives Little Bear a small lantern to sleep with, however, it seems this isn't enough for Little Bear. Little Bear still tosses and turns so Big Bear has to stop reading his book again to get him some more light. But again, Little Bear cannot sleep because there is too much dark inside as well as outside! Big Bear doesn't know what to do, there is dark everywhere, how is Big Bear supposed to light up all the dark at night-time? The plot of the story is about a two bears, a big bear and a little bear that live in a bear cave. It’s all about the little bear not being able to sleep as he is scared ‘of the dark all around them’ and the big bear trying different ways to light up his room to reassure little bear that there is no need to be afraid of the dark, which only works when he finds the perfect way to comfort his fears, outside, in front of the moon which is the biggest light of them all.
