In this delightful book, Kasparavicius
has captured the warmth and excitement
of spending the holiday season visiting
special friends and family. Everyone
in the Bear family wants to go somewhere
different to celebrate Christmas, but
there's one plan they can all agree
on-to fly their house around the world
by hot air balloon. The Bear children
get to see how pandas, koalas, polar
bears, and other friends from different
lands prepare for the holidays, and
though they're far from home, they still
get a visit from Santa Bear.
This warm world tour is the happiest
Christmas book ever!

From Publishers Weekly
Unable to decide on a single destination for the holidays, a family of
bears attaches a balloon to their house and circles the globe. In the
far north, they visit their cousins the polar bears; in Peru, their
friends the spectacled bears; in Australia, the koalas, and so on. Lithuanian
artist Kasparavicius's meticulously detailed watercolors play up the
international settings with abundant wit, including a nonchalant emu
doing duty as a Christmas tree, painted green and decked with ornaments
for the holidays Down Under. Ages 4-8.
