Bear is a rambling musician. An entertainer. A legend. One Bear Extraordinaire. Bear wakes up one morning with a song in his head, but something is missing. What’s a one-bear band to do? He travels the forest in search of his song and meets a few other musicians along the way, but even with their help, his song still feels incomplete. Will Bear find the perfect accompaniment and learn that every song sounds sweeter with friends by his side? Jayme McGowan brings Bear and his merry band to life with intricate and innovative threedimensional cut-paper art that is nothing short of extraordinary.

One Bear Extraordinaire, by Jayme McGowan

From School Library Journal PreS-Gr 2—Bear is a "rambling musician" and composer who plays triangle, tambourine, xylophone, drums, harmonica, trumpet, and cowbell, but mostly guitar. Dressed in jeans and a red and white cap and carrying instruments and camping gear on his back, Bear meets a succession of other pants-wearing woodland animal musicians. Each of them adds something to Bear's unfinished song, except Wolf Pup, who fails at every instrument he tries. When the moon rises, however, Wolf Pup adds his voice, the very sound Bear had been missing all along. The story is a musically inflected version of the reams of picture books about finding one's individual gifts; the art is the real star here. Collage, drawing, and three-dimensional layered cut-paper illustrations photographed by the author-illustrator will reward close looking. The bright-eyed animals and their exquisite paper accessories (from buttons to s'mores) have a dollhouse charm. VERDICT This gentle, folksy tale will be a harmonious addition to many collections.—Sarah Stone, San Francisco Public Library

Review "McGowan’s writing has a pleasing musical lilt...but it’s her artwork that really stands out...McGowan’s layered images have a rusticity that’s in keeping with her itinerant musicians’ free-spirited mind-set." (Publishers Weekly)STARRED REVIEW "McGowan's art, three-dimensional illustrations of painted, cut, assembled, and photographed scenes, is a wonder to behold in its ingenuity and animation. Now all this story needs is an audience, and it's sure to drum one up." (Kirkus Reviews)"I would challenge anyone not to be charmed by the artwork in this book. Ms. McGowan's debut shows an infectious love for her craft and for picture books. From Bear's potbelly to the band's instruments, there is a gentle simplicity to this story that should be savored." (Erin Stead, Caldecott Medal-winning illustrator)“Beautifully designed, richly colored cut-paper illustrations effectively show the movement implicit in Bear’s musical search while allowing each character’s unique personality to shine through. Sweeping landscapes alternate with scenes in rustic frames that give the effect of placing the characters on a stage. There is much to relish in this story of camaraderie.”  (Booklist)“McGowan's intricate papercut art and playful cast of characters are guaranteed to put a smile on your face and leave you howling with delight.”  (Huffington Post)“It’s an entertaining story of acceptance and community with wonderful, juicy words like ‘footslogged,’ but the art is what really stands out.” – Julie Danielson of Seven Impossible Things Before Breakfast (Julie Danielson)"The book is beautifully written, and playfully illustrated by McGowan’s intricate three-dimensional cut paper illustrations. A note discusses how she designed, cut, assembled, and layered each piece of artwork, staging miniature scenes in a paper theater, which she then photographed for her book." (School Library Connection)

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. A Real Story about Friendship By Young Mensan BookParade This is a book about a musical bear trying to find his song. He woke up one morning with a song in his head but he knew something was missing. He took a walk and found Fox playing the banjo. Bear also met Raccoon playing an accordion and Rabbit playing the fiddle. None of those animals and their instruments were the missing link so they all decided to walk together up the mountain. That’s where they found the missing piece to their song.I read this book to my three year old brother and we both really liked the story. We both play piano and love music. It was cool to know that all the animals could play together and they never stopped trying to find their music. It was a good story with lots of humor and fun pictures. I think it’s really a story about friendship and shows you should include everyone because everyone has a place. My brother and I give this book 5 stars and recommend it to preschoolers and kindergartners.Review by Cameron H., New Mexico Mensa
