I am blown over by this beautiful book! The illustrations are amazing and the rhyming story is simply beautiful. It is an inspiring story about doing nice things for others. This is bound to be one of those books that everyone will want to have.

Simplicity of the Purest of Heart. I had the pleasure of knowing the author when she was a child. My mind wanders back to a little girl with twinkles in her eyes who had a very active spirit and imagination. And this book is definitely proof of that. Thoroughly enjoyed the story of kindness paid forward from the eyes of a very wise 10 year old. So much deeper than beautiful rhymes and vibrant pictures. God answers prayers. When all seems dark and dismal, He's only a prayer away. When bear related his story to his friends, some were awed, while others scoffed. So it is when we try to tell others the 'good news' and spread the 'word.' Some people will be hears only, while others will be doers. When you do a good deed, do not do so with expectations. Do it with a good heart and the purest of intentions. When others see this, they will do the same and thus start a chain reaction of goodness. I am blown over by this beautiful book! The illustrations are amazing and the rhyming story is simply adorable. This is an inspiring story about doing nice things for others and doing it only because you want to do good. This is bound to be one of those books that everyone will want to have.

'A superbly illustrated picture book with a strong message of kindness. A RED RIBBON WINNER and highly recommended!' The Wishing Shelf Book Awards Reviewed By Rolanda Lyles for Readers' Favorite Little Bear loves to run and play. He chases birds, climbs trees, and is so curious about the world. One day, while Little Bear went exploring, he spotted a butterfly and followed it to a clearing where he found a horse that was stuck. Little Bear hurried to help the horse and set him free, but once he set the horse free, he realized that it was no ordinary horse. It was a unicorn, but not everyone could see it. Little Bear was brave and kind so he could see the unicorn. Little Bear went back and told his friends, but not everyone believed him. Bunny believed and prayed that she could meet a unicorn too. So Little Bear and Bunny continued to go about helping other animals that needed it and one day something amazing happened. Little Bear and his friend Bunny were brave and kind and you can be too. Kathleen Shields's The First Unibear is a wonderful children's adventure story that promotes kindness, bravery, and faith in the goodness of others. The illustrations are done by Aashay Utkarsh and they are vibrant and captivating for young readers. The story flows with a rhyme scheme that is catchy and perfect for reading to children. The First Unibear is a great, imaginative children's story that encourages compassion and helpfulness to others and the belief that we can all achieve goodness. The First Unibear is an inspirational tale that would be a great addition to any child's library. Review by Theodocia McLean (Book Marketing Global Network) Acts Of Kindness and Lessons Learned! This bear Adventure is Enchanting . Beautiful bright, colorful illustrations by Aashay Utkarsh will delight children. This enchanting story told by Award Winning Author Kathleen J. Shields inspires children as they join Bear on his adventurous day outside. Bear's act of kindness and pure heart brings him face-to-face with a magical unicorn. Bear's woodland friends do not believe his unicorn story at first. Many lessons will be learned, including acts of kindness naturally spread to others, even if it starts with 'The First Unibear'. I recommend this teaching kindness picture book for all young readers 4-10 years old. 'The First Unibear' should be placed in community, church, and school libraries. I hope this book finds its ways to those children confined to hospitals and homeless shelters. There is even a black and white coloring book to purchase so the magic can continue.
