Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
*Starred Review* Ooh, how frustrating. A young bear cub stumbles upon a little girl’s tea party and really, really just wants a cookie, but tea party rules get in the way. The cub, who, unbeknownst to the girl, has knocked her stuffed bear off a chair and taken his identity, gets carted away as soon as the girl peers closely at him. “You’re too grubby,” she says. Cub does not want a bath. However, he is groomed and then put in a dress and bonnet (“Tea Party Rule: you must be neat”). Soon Cub is seated at the table, and it’s finally cookie time, but the rule to “eat daintily” is out the window. (He has his dignity, after all.) The tables are turned, perfectly so, when the little girl changes the game, and therefore the rules. Dyckman (Boy and Bot, 2012) and Campbell (Flora and Ulysses, 2013) are a winning pair, using their comedic chops to pace the story beautifully. Seeing Cub masquerading as stuffed, with feet sticking stiffly out and eyeballs wide, is laugh-out-loud funny. Campbell’s soft sepia-marker-and-colored-pencil illustrations appear on creamy backgrounds, alternating humorous spots and detailed full-page spreads; the depictions of an unhappy bear ensure little ones are in on the joke. This battle of wills between two charmers hits just the right note. Preschool-Grade 3. --Ann Kelley

This was an adorable, fun book that I found charming as an adult, and my kids wanted to read over and over. The little girl in the story is so much like my girls, who are very serious about tea time rules! The little bear is hilarious, and the illustrations are wonderful. A highly recommended read for kids.

This book is so cute! I love that both boys and girls will identify with the bear (rather than the child), too. It cleverly models feelings of patience, empathy, and compromise in a really cute and funny way. Our daughter wants this book (and Boy + Bot by the same author) read over and over again. We have since given it as a gift to many other similarly-aged friends (from about 2-4) and they all love it, too.

This book is super cute! It's about a bear in the woods who smells delicious cookies and stumbles upon a small tea party outside a house. Just when he's about to go for the cookies, a little girl comes outside and the bear has to pretend to be a stuffed animal guest and suffer all of the girl's tea party rules before he's able to get a cookie.
If you have a princess at home, she will love the tea party and the dress-up aspects of the story. If you have a child that is more "bear"ish, they will empathize with the bear and his desire to chow down.
The gorgeous illustrations and soft and gentle, yet hysterical. (Love the cat!)
Pour yourself some milk, get a plate of cookies, and enjoy TEA PARTY RULES.

One of the few "tea party" books for little kids I could find. The story on this one is engaging, and a good starting point for a whole host of ideas from the needs of wild animals to the fun of planning a tea party with pretend toys.

Both story and illustrations were well thought from beginning to end. Little bear walking thru the woods was very pretty.

I was looking for a book to introduce my daughter to what a tea party is all about, many other books that I bought and looked into fell short in some way or the other (illustrations, story line), but this one was just perfect. A delightful book from beginning to end!
