The mom jumps and catches a fish. Baby bear wants to catch a fish. He goes to the water and then jumps in. Did baby bear catch the fish? Read the story to find out.
Itzel liked the book because it is funny when the little bear thinks the moon is a fish. The book made her feel happy when the baby bear was able to catch the fish. Her favorite part is when the baby bear climbed the tree and looked at the river because the picture is so colorful and has lots of big trees.
