Middle Bear by Susanna Isern, Manon Gauthier

Do you have a middle child?  How about one that's middlin' good at everything?

Kids Can Press and Edelweiss let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published October 3rd.

He's not the oldest, he's not the youngest, he's the middle bear.  He's not sure he likes that.  After all, he's nothing special.  But when his parents need the children's help, he finds out that being the size he is has an advantage.  Being in the middle can be good!

The text is repetitive and the illustrations are sparse which makes the story stand out more.  What size is your bear?
