"The team effort of Kristina Schoettle and Elizabeth Welch knocked the ball out of the park with The Bear in the Blue Bow Tie. This children's book is full of humor and rhymes. I have seen many children's books with contrived rhymes, but this book uses natural rhyming that flows from the tip of the pen. There are no twisted ways of pronouncing words to make them rhyme. Talk about politeness! I wish people would be as polite as the bear in the blue bow tie. You can tell he had a proper upbringing. This is an excellent book for teaching etiquette and manners to your children. It is so delightful that I read it twice." -Philip Van Heusen for Reader's Favorite
