Why did we select this book?
Anger, frustration, and a reluctance to share are all a part of growing up. Learning to control all of those emotions can be helped along with laughter. Raising Readers selected this book to allow you to laugh together at Mouse's frustration at having to share his chair with this very adorable (and stubborn) bear. Let the book open conversations about times your child is frustrated. Maybe "There is a bear in my chair!" will become the words your family use to indicate that you are having trouble sharing!
