Little Brown Bear resists all the efforts to get him to eat his soup.

An unexpected visitor, a plate of egg sandwiches and a hungry little boy. What could possibly go wrong? "Don’t you ever listen?" bellowed the bear. "Bears don’t eat egg sandwiches!" Just as Jack sits down for lunch, there is a knock at the door and in comes a hungry bear! Jack tries to offer the bear his favorite food, egg sandwiches, but the bear has other ideas. . . . Jack tries his best to figure out what bears eat and ends up sitting on the plate himself. How will Jack get out of this mess? A fun tale for 3-5 year olds that will have them guessing what bears do eat for lunch. A great book to read with groups of children in schools or libraries, with opportunities for them to join in with the repeating refrain throughout.
