The seventh Bear adventure has the much-cherished ursine hero inviting the moon to cut a rug. Ages 4-6.

From School Library Journal
PreSchool-- Asch's naive little Bear continues his fascination with things celestial. This time he wants to dance with the moon but thinks she is too special to bother with him. In the end, the moon comes down to Earth, reflected in a puddle, and Bear has his dance. There is nothing new here--it's a simple story simply told, complemented by illustrations with flat shapes and colors and few extraneous details. Yet Bear has an innocence, and the stories about him a sense of quiet, satisfied joy that continues to charm.
