"There is a special bond between the bear and Johnny that is clearly evident in Ward's expressive art. In modern times, readers may look at this book as cruelty to animals, but in the time the story was first written this wasn't considered an issue."
"this book is more for an older child i suupose. though i remember it being read to me since well forever so who knows. anyways its a good story and a classic in my opinion."
"ugly book. little johnny is jealous that all the other kids daddys have killed a bear. not johnny's, he daddy is a wimp, a milktoast, not a real man. one day johnny is in the forest and finds a bear cub, feeds it and takes it home. daddy (probably a vegan and belongs to peta) lets johnny keep and raise it. the baby bear grows up, steals food, raids the other farms and is generally uncivilized. so all the other daddys get together and tell johnny he needs to take the bear into the woods and blow its head off. johnny got his gun, happily took the bear into the forest and locks and loads... but damn, the bear runs away, fortunately it falls into a cage set up by the city zoo. everybody lives happily ever after. the bear being gawked at and underfed, johnny grows up to become a life member of the nra and fly alaska govenors in helicopters. bang bang. the art isn't much either"
