Arthur S Honey Bear

Arthur decides to sell his old toys but cannot make a decision about the stuffed bear given to him by his father.

Arthur and his sister Violet are selling their old toys--even Arthur's favorite Honey Bear. When his little sister buys his bear, Arthur misses him terribly. But Arthur realizes that even though he's growing up, he can still have a special relationship with an old friend. Young children will delight in the adventures of Arthur and Violet and this very special story about friendship.

A bear takes a baby into the forest to eat some honey, and her mother is so relieved to find the baby safe and covered in honey that she begins using the endearment "honey," which now all parents use to address their children.

In this remarkable book, Ellen Handler Spitz shows how to promote children’s creative and emotional growth by making the most of the unlimited possibilities of everyday experiences.Through delightful anecdotes about real children and their treasures, bedrooms, play spaces, music, scary things, and birthday parties, The Brightening Glance will inspire you to create a life of wonder, inventiveness, and cultural enrichment for your child.
