​I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t mind having a party with my bear today. And what party would be complete without a picture book? I happen to have the perfect book for this occasion: 
Picture
​
TITLE: THE BEAR AND THE PIANO

AUTHOR/ILLUSTRATOR: David Litchfield

PUBLISHER: Clarion Books/2015

OPENING LINES: 

​One day in the forest, a young bear cub found something he’d never seen before. 
What could this strange thing be? he thought. 
Shyly, he touched it with his stubby paws. 
PLONK!
The strange thing made an awful sound.
So the bear left.
But the next day he came back, 
and the day after that, too.
​A bear cub discovers something unusual in this forest and is curious. Curious enough to plonk on some piano keys and, as a result, comes to the conclusion that this thing makes an awful sound. Yet he is compelled to come back and visit the piano, again and again. In time, and with lots of practice, the bear learns how to make beautiful music. His love for music draws him to explore a world beyond the forest, but he is torn between following his dreams and staying connected to his friends and family at home. This touching book has bears and pianos and fame  and family, and you don’t want to miss out, so please explore David Litchfield’s world of The Bear and the Piano!
