Set in the woods of northern Ontario, Johnny Orchard and his pet bear are the stars in this 1953 Caldecott winning book. Johnny sets off for a bear skin, but returns with a very large, and very furry friend.
Gitty and her feathered-friend Kvetch couldn’t be more different: Gitty always sees the bright side of life, while her curmudgeonly friend Kvetch is always complaining and, well, kvetching about the trouble they get into!
