Jesse Bear, What Will You Wear?

Kids love it! One of there faves! ( )

This book follows little Jesse Bear through his day from sun up to bedtime. As the day progresses Jesse’s mom asks him the rhyming question, “Jesse Bear, what will you wear?” Jesse’s answers range from the practical, “My shirt of red, pulled over my head,” to the whimsical, “I’ll wear the sun on my legs that run.” As the book ends, Jesse’s parents tuck him into bed and we watch him fall asleep.

Degen’s illustrations are bright and playful.The repetitive text is formatted in a patterned structure which makes it easy for adults to read aloud and for kids to follow along. The rhymes use every day words that toddlers will recognize (chair, hair, sun, run) and make it a “read it one more time!” book.
