Publisher's Synopsis
Having cloistered in his den for the winter, Ulysses is confronted with a bout of insomnia and tries everything he can think of to fall asleep. Read the story of a curious bear trying in vain to doze off. Each pair of pages features the story of Ulysses' odyssey, a relevant factoid footnote by C Jared Castor, and a full-sized image to be colorized with pencils. The moral (to not let anxiety weigh you down) and the plot (trial and error experimentation) are worth sharing with readers of any age. This book is 34 pages long and designed for a wide range of skill levels. Emphasis on vocabulary building and the integration of fact and fiction render Ursa Major an enticing educational tool.
