Summary
Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? by Bill Martin Jr.
Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? is a picture book written with simple words, including color and animal words. The colorful illustrations help the reader decode the text. While the story has no plot, it has a predictable, repetitive text. On each 2 page spread, various colored animals are asked what they see. Each animal responds to help the reader predict what picture comes next. This pattern holds until a teacher appears and sees children, who, in turn, review all of the characters introduced throughout the book.
