Achoo! Why Pollen Counts

Description

There’s a little bear who wakes up from his sleeping in the winter and he starts to run an errand in the fresh air, but he starts sneezing from pollen! He says that he hates pollen, but then he talks to all these animals that need to eat pollen. Bees and lots of insects eat pollen, and spiders eat it too!

Pollen also pollinates the flowers so fruits can grow.The owl tells him that pollen clings to rain droplets that freeze in the clouds and then falls as snow, and lots of animals eat the snow, including Baby Bear! So then Baby Bear is happier about pollen, because he knows that it is important.

I like the story and the pictures in this book. It is something that I think my younger sister would like; I really think it would be a good book for children that are younger than me to learn about pollen.

At the back of the book there is more information about pollen and pollination and even about allergies, which make Baby Bear sneeze. But my favorite part of the book is the pictures of Baby Bear, because he is really really cute!
