Off we GoA Bear and Mole StoryWill HillenbrandHoliday House New YorkWill Hillenbrand presents a story in the tradition of Little Engine that Could. Mole wants to ride his bike without training wheels. He tries and tries but after a few unsuccessful attempts he is ready to give up. He is very lucky to have a good friend in Bear for Bear encourages him to keep trying. With this little bit of encouragement he is able to ride his bike to stoytime. Off we Go makes a good addition to children's collection. This is a title that families may want to borrow multiple times from the liblrary. Will Hillenbrand's illustrations are sure to delight readers of his new Bear and Mole Story: Off We Go! Bear helps a very wobbly Mole learn to ride his bike. There are lots of stops and starts, crashes and near misses. Hillenbrand inserts so much motion into his illustrations that it gives the story a sense of movement as if you are watching a movie. This is great book for story time. Pair it with Duck on a Bike by David Shannon for some fun.
