Buckle up for a little bear's first flight in this adorable, light-as-air picture book by New York Times bestselling author Deborah Underwood and critically acclaimed artist Sam Wedelich. Follow a bear cub, their grownup, and their beloved stuffie Teddy as they make their way through the busy airport and cub's first plane ride. Their destination? A bear-y special family reunion with grandma! This cheerful, rhyming, reassuring go-to for little ones preparing for their first (or second or tenth) flight is a gentle adventure full of accessible bear puns and delightful touches, plus a detailed map of the bear-port on the endpapers. Here's the shuttle-climb inside. Time for your first bearplane ride! "The perfect pick for first-time fliers . . . Essential." -Common Sense Media "Buoyant and properly reassuring." -Booklist * "Both accessible and fun." -BCCB (starred review) "Adorable." -TinyBeans "Fun for travelers of all ages." -The Walla Walla Union-Bulletin
