This is a cute book about a bear that needs to stay quiet while the other animals are sleeping. My toddler is the bear. He loved seeing himself in this little bear and relating to his story.

I honestly not sure if my review would be valid as I received this book as ARC from NetGalley and they only sent the ACSM version, sooo.. I cannot listen to the sound, while the book is a press & listen book

However, I am gonna review it anyway. I think the idea is good, to introducing babies or early age about animals, as well as their sound.

It's also unique, with the dark theme, perhaps it can glow in the dark or the color might be more "pop" when parents read it to their kids as bedtime story.


Overall, for me the book is good. I'm just curious about the sound

A charming simple little book, Hush… Little Bear is Sleeping takes you along telling different animals to hush their noises because “Baby Bear is trying to sleep.” Little children will like the reminder of what sounds animals make and parents will like this (very) brief book as a bedtime read.

This sweet board book features five different animals that are impeding the gentle rest and sleep of little bear. The book bears ( no pun intended ) different sounds chips so little ones can hear the sounds that they make. These noises disturb little bear as he is trying to nod off. Small readers will be able to hear these sounds and learn the names of all the animals involved.

This is a fun, interactive learning experience that kids will love. The book is short and the limited and its bold, colour pallet consists of four colours: black, white, blue and yellow. The sound quality is very crisp and clear. "Hush...Little Bear is Sleeping" will be asked to be re-read many times over I'm sure. Recommended by Storywraps.

From the hooting owl to the chirping cricket, the meowing cat to the barking dog, each of the busy animals are hushed, one by one, so that Baby Bear can fall asleep.

This was adorable! The art style was lovely and I think that a physical version with the sound chips will delight young readers.

This is a lovely little book! The illustrations are simple but effective, and the animals throughout are so sweet! The story sees different animals being asked to hush, because little bear is going to sleep. The repetition of the word hush makes this a nice, calm read which is perfect for bedtime.

It is a cute little bedtime book. Just wish it was a tad bit longer. My one year old loves looking at it while we read. Good job with the black and white graphics. I thought my 5 year old wouldn't enjoy it but surprisingly she did. She tried to read it with me and make the animal sounds herslef because unfortunately we could't get the full experience of the sounds the actual board book has. Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for letting us enjoy this cute little book.

This is a cute little book about staying quiet while others are trying to sleep. Baby bear is sleeping and owl, cricket, cat, and dog are hushed so he won't wake up.

Reading to your little ones is the best gift you can give. This board book with sounds, primary color illustrations which is easy on baby's eyes is a soothing way to get your own baby to sleep. Baby bear is trying to sleep and each page with a different animal sound is keeping baby awake. A sweet book for the sweetest of babies.

This is a short, beautifully illustrated book in which the illustrations playfully evoke nighttime.  This title is designed to help the littlest ones to fall asleep.  As I had a proof copy, unfortunately I could not hear the sounds but this is a sweet book even without them.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title in exchange for an honest review.

Cute book with animal sounds for toddlers. I love the illustrations of all the animals and the coloring is great! I know kids will love the sounds of the animals as they start learning what sounds certain animals make. Great read before nap or bed

This is a gorgeous little book for infants. The illustrations are bold, simple yet effective and the colour scheme is lovely.

The animals will appeal to young children and I wish I could hear the sounds that would accompany it as I bet they would add to the appeal!

Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for this ARC.
