The Megasaurus

Overview

Each picture book in the Lima Bear Stories series delivers messages for children to help them handle everyday situations with siblings and friends, including tolerance, honesty, and courage. Basic characters, each with their own distinct personality, appear and reappear throughout the series, allowing children to get to know them and anticipate how they are likely to act in different situations. Extended learning and activity questions are included to allow parents and teachers to further encourage children to become involved in the concepts presented. When the tiny, multicolored bean-shaped bears of Beandom come under attack by a monster, even the king’s wisest advisors seem unable to find a solution. Can an ordinary bear step forward with a plan that works? The primary concept presented in the story is to follow your convictions even when others think differently.
