From BooklistAges 58. Narrated by a bear, this unusual picture book presents his perceptions of a series of earthquakes that shook Missouri in the early 1800s. Carson does a fine job of reporting events and rumors through the bear narrator, and make no mistake, there's nothing precious about him. His consciousness is somewhat different than a human's, but he reports what he understands, colored by his own beliefs and centered on his own experiences. Nevertheless, he's observant of other animals and of people as well (and he has a very engaging prose style!). Parker's illustrations are impressionistic studies in ink and watercolor, with grainy shading that gives great texture and depth to the scenes. In an informative and reassuring note on the last page, Carson explains earthquakes to young children. An intriguing choice for the primary grades, this picture book could also be used with older kids to illustrate point of view in writing. Carolyn PhelanProduct DescriptionA bear who was there describes three earthquakes in Arkansas, in 1811 and 1812, and their aftermath
