A Book for Bear
Available for Preorder

Coming July 2023 from Flamingo Books/Penguin Young Readers
A Book for Bear, written by Ellen L. Ramsey and illustrated by MacKenzie Haley, is the story of a book-loving bear and his search for the perfect book—a book the color of ripe, red raspberries and delicious to read.
Bear loves books. When Bear decides he wants a book of his very own, he and his best friend Ellen hatch a plan. But sneaking a bear into a school, library, and bookstore proves to be harder than they thought. Will Bear ever find a book of his very own?
