<b>"Let''s scare bear!" says the tiny mouse. But the pint-size bully''s plan backfires in this riff on a Japanese folktale.</b><br><br><b>An ALA Notable Children''s Book</b><br><br>Mouse, Fox, Spider, and Snake all want to scare Bear. But Bear is the bravest animal in the forest--nothing scares Bear.<br><br>Except, maybe, one thing.<br><br>Bear says that he''s scared of manju cakes. Armed with that knowledge, the animals hatch a plan to scare Bear with manju cakes. . . . lots and lots of them. . . . only to learn that the only scary thing is how much Bear loves to eat them!<br><br>Yuko Katakawa''s bright art is full of detail and humor, from Snake''s bow and glasses to Spider''s web-spun comments on their ill-fated tricks. Based on "Scary Manju," a tale in the Japanese oral tradition known as rakugo, Let''s Scare Bear is a trickster tale that reminds us that bullies come in all shapes and sizes--and that when we share instead, everyone wins.
