A great joy for the under 5s - By: Seren Ade, 29 Oct 2008 
'We're Going on a Bear Hunt' has been one of the favourite stories for children at the nursery where I work for years. It is a beautiful & well-constructed story, with nice use of repetitive language patterns that children can joinin with or re-enact.
I was a little concerned by the idea of a DVD version: I didn't want to see one of the children's favourite stories ruined by over-production.
I needn't have worried. The DVD is beautifully-produced. It doesn't detract from the storyin any way: the animation is simply an animated version of the illustrations from the book & the narration (by Kevin Whately & Emelia Fox) is just right. The added music track isn't intrusive, & it's used to partially set the words from the book to music. It's hard to remember now that the story didn't always seem to have this tune.
Presenting book & DVD together is a lovely idea.
Great Book - By: Amy Alley, 06 Nov 2006 Well recommended book. Very good descriptive, rhythmic verses. Easy to read & engage children with. Fun family outdoor adventure! Children can sing-a-long too!
