DLTK’s website offers printable pictures of animals named in the book, complete with instructions on how to use the sheets as felt board characters and can provide an enjoyable, post-story coloring craft. This is a great book to add to a read-aloud on color and would translate well to a felt board. There is a board book version available that is perfect for the tiniest hands. The rhythm of the book is comfortably repetitive, so children know what to expect on each spread. The font is a simple, black font the question appears on the left hand page of each spread, and the response on the right. The endpapers lead readers into this study in color, with the colors named in the book appearing, striped, across them.īill Martin’s repetitive question-and-answer rhyme format, coupled with Eric Carle’s signature hand-painted and layered collage technique, appeals to toddlers and preschoolers alike, giving the animals a textured appearance that makes them stand out on the white background of the page.
The animals are described in terms of color: a brown bear, a red bird, a yellow duck, a blue horse. An unseen narrator asks different animals what they see the animals respond that another animal is looking at them, repeating the process throughout the book. Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? is a children’s literature classic.
