Im trying to remember the names of too of my greatest childhood story books!. The first one is about a dog who gets bitting by a bee on his nose and he has to go to the vet!. The other is about an old teddy who was stuck in an attick and the other toys help him get out!. - has something to do with an aeroplane saving him!? Any help would be great appreciated!! Thankyou in advanceWww@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The second book is "Old Bear" by Jane Hissey "Kirkus Reviews /* Starred Review */ Some well-loved toys mount a rescue effort to retrieve Old Bear from the attic, where he was stored because the children were too rough and he needed somewhere safe till they got a little older!. Reaching the ceiling trapdoor is a challenge!. Duck, Rabbit, Bramwell Brown and Little Bear try stacking books, stacking themselves, and climbing the philodendron before solving the problem with the help of a toy airplane and handkerchief parachutes!. Their gentle persistence and cooperation, expressed in economical, lucid language with a glint of humor and the cadence of real speech, are rewarded by reunion with a grateful if dusty Old Bear, who's found reading old books!. Hissey's lovingly depicted toys are as gentle and unsentimental as her text!. Old Bear, especially, is a threadbare treasure; the group drawing close in the joy of reunion makes a touching portrait!. A book that should be treasured as long as all the old bears!. (Kirkus Reviews, September 15, 1986)" Edit: The first book sounds like "The Case of the Double Bumblebee Sting (Hank the Cowdog)" by John R Ericson http://www!.amazon!.com/Case-Double-Bumble!.!.!. "This review is from: The Case of the Double Bumblebee Sting (Hank the Cowdog) (Audio CD) I would recommend Hank the Cow Dog Case of the Double Bumblebee Sting because it's funny!. Hank thinks two bumblebees have bitten him but it ends up that it was a rattlesnake!. His face swells up like a balloon!. He says, "It weighs 250 pounds"!. Drover keeps on saying that it was a rattlesnake, but Hank will be Hank - stubborn as a donkey!. Hank keeps on saying, "it was 2 bumblebees in that pipe"!. Drover just goes with the flow and says "OK"!. " "Matthew Jacobs's Hank the Cowdog's Bee Sting Reveiw, November 12, 2001 A Kid's Review This book is about a dog named Hank!. Hank lives on a ranch, and is head of ranch security!. Drover is another dog that live on the ranch!. In this book Hank gets bit by a rattlesnake, but he thinks it's a bumble bee!. Sally May his owner takes him to the vet to get a shot!. In the end Hank finally get's better!. I reccomend this because it's funny and thrilling to read!."Www@QuestionHome@Com |
