Excerpt:

Through the wood come Rabbit and Hare,

Going to visit their good friend Bear.

They look in the cave he calls his lair,

Just to see if Bear is there.

Hare jumps forward without much care,

He leaps right in the home of Bear.

The sound of snoring is heard by Hare,

It turns out Bear is sleeping there.

After slowly giving a sideways stare,

He decides to poke at Bear.

First it seems that Bear is not aware,

He turns to face away from Hare.

Rabbit warns his good friend Hare,

It's not good to Poke at Bear.

Hare wants to play he doesn't care,

He sticks his paw back in there.

About the Author:

Dominic Villari is well versed in the art and science of making stuff up and is often caught talking to things, especially when they don't work right or are difficult to put together. These pursuits occasionally spill out onto paper in illustrated children's books such as Sun and Moon, Bear is Hangry and The Yelling Monsters and fiction books such as The Wandering Princess and Talks to Things. He lives in New Jersey with his wife and daughter, both of whom have gotten better about knowing when he's making stuff up.
About the Author: Dominic Villari is the author of several books including Practical Storytelling and The Ginger Bread Man. Since becoming a parent, he has focused mainly on children's literature he can share with daughter. His most recent books include Don't Poke the Bear, The Way Forward, Tan's Tile and You have to Wear Pants. His "Literary Animals" series, beginning with Quincy, Cat of La Mancha, presents classic literary stories for young children. Dominic earned a Bachelor of Arts in Communication from Rider University and a Master of Science in Communication from Boston University.
