Ormerod, Jan. (2010). Maudie and Bear. New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons Books for Young Readers.
This book won the Children's Book Council of Australia's Early Childhood Book of the Year in 2011. This lovable story is about a young girl and her beloved friend, Bear. The story goes through their typical daily life together. An interesting aspect to this picture book is its use of chapters within a short picture book. The illustrations throughout this book depict Maudie and Bear's fun, daily activities through cartoon illustrations. The book simply goes through daily routines and actions that Maudie and Bear encounter, but it also has important themes of friendship and love.
The following is a link with teacher resources to go along with this book, in which contains author information, comprehension questions, and activities related to the book for young students: http://www.earlywords.info/maudie_and_bear.%20teacher%20notes.pdf
