- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a great book that teaches kids so many things.Kids will learn about different type of animals and they will also learn about colors.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Brown bear is a story that has been around for ages but it is still a classic. The rhyme scheme of the story is very catching. It teaches color as well as animals. The book is uniquely illustated. I would recommend this book for children PreK-K.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is a good book for younger audiences, maybe kindergarten. There are many animals and the author is asking them all what they see and they respond with the next animal - this makes it predictable.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I really love this book and I enjoyed it .
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5IM 33 YEARS OLD AND I LOVED THIS BOOK :^)
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Various animals in various colors. Simple, with beautiful illustrations by Eric Carle (of The Little Hungry Caterpillar) and great rhymes.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really love this book. I read it to the toddlers I teach at my job. It is a great board book because it has repetition that the kids are able to learn and start rhyming as they listen and I read along. They are also able to guess what animal is coming up next based on the color hint the book gives before the next page. Kids are able to learn rhymes, and predict what happens next in the story.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I think the illustrations of this book are super good for early elementary-aged kids since they are simple yet really show the different types of animals.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Simple board book with colors and animals.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Classic. I'd rather the surprise conclusion was more than a teacher, but her class was diverse and there was indeed a plot! Lots of colors and animals, very easy to follow.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I remember this from when I was younger and now my daughter gets to experience it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I liked the teacher and all the animals with colors.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I have the real book and I love reading it
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A classic preschool picture book with a simple, patterned rhyme. Great for learning animals and colors.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A brown bear tells what he sees. He sees a red bird looking at him. All the way from a brown bear to a group of children. All of the children describe the colors and the animals that they see.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is a great book for younger students and I have enjoyed reading this book for many years. The main idea of this story is to show different animals and what they see. I liked the story because it can teach young students different colors and animals. I am also a huge fan of the illustrations in the story. Although the book's story line does not stray from naming animals and colors, the repetitious pattern keeps children of young ages engaged and wondering what is going to come next. All in all, this book is a timeless classic and a read that children will remember for years to come.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Brow Bear Brown Bear What do you see was written by Bill Martin Jr. and illustrated by Eric Carle. It was published in 1996 by Henry Holt and Co. This book is about all different animals and does a good job pulling the reader in by asking questions. This book would be a great book to read to little ones because the reader can ask the child the questions and get the child to answer. This book even promotes language and cognitive development. Another great part of the book is the illustrations. The illustrations are by the well known illustrator Eric Carle and are fun and interesting to look at. They are the perfect touch for the book. When I read this book to the little girl I babysit she asked me to read it over and over again to her. Once I had read the book to her a few times she had basically memorized what each page said and started reading it to me. I think this says a lot about the book and how great it is. I strongly recommend reading this book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I think this book is easy to follow and the text flows well. The pictures are beautiful and colorful. I think a small child such as a toddler or preschooler would be able to follow the story.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book has wonderful worth as a read-aloud teaching the sequence of events to young readers. It's illustrations are colorful and beautiful as well.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Colorful, it's perfect!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5There are three reasons I like "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?" First, the illustrations in the book allow young students who are learning how to read visualize the words they are saying. For example, along with "Red Bird, Red Bird, What do you see?" there is a red bird to show the students what they look like. Second, the writing and language in the book is simple, making it easy for young students to understand. "I see a yellow duck looking at me." This is a simple response that students can easily understand. Third, the book pushes readers to think more about the animals in the book. For example, they are able to think about the sounds of bears, birds, ducks, and horses. The big idea of this story is for students to notice patterns while they are reading.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you see? has quickly become a classic for younger children. The rhythm of the book as it is read makes it fun to read and follow along with. This story allows the reader to identify a variety of animals and their colors. The pictures and simplicity of it make it easy to identify animals on each page. The book would be great in a kindergarten classroom to help students use the illustrations to tell about a story.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Brown Bear, Brown Bear is a cute book that is great for the classroom. I remember reading this book as kid. The pictures are great and really pop on the white background. The book is an easy concept book that rhymes and has the big idea of learning colors. The book is repetitive and fun for young kids to read aloud and learn from.
