How Much Can a Bare Bear Bear?: What Are Homonyms and Homophones? (Words Are Categorical) Review
My 6-year-old son loves this book. I would have given this book five stars, but for the typography; the font is a little too wacky for beginning readers.
"How Much Can a Bare Bear Bear?" is written in fun and engaging rhyme, with quirky and creative illustrations by Brian Gable. Homonyms and homophones are combined in silly yet perfectly understandable sentences --
A SIOUX might not SUE if he KNEW that the GNU that he bought wasn't NEW like you said.
-- which make this book not only a great teaching tool, but also a very fun read. I'm looking forward to checking out the other titles in this series.

Great gift for Teachers - Darlene Seeman -
This is a really creatively written book that kids will enjoy. It will help those having confusion with the English language on the different meanings of same words in a fun manner. Great gift idea for teachers who are just starting out or have been teaching for a long time.

Homonyms! - TeacherMommy - pearland, texas United States
Excellent book for all language arts teachers in primary and middle schools (use for review). This is another book in Cleary's series and it gets the job done! Excellent springboard book to focus the students!
