Richard Scarry’s Good Night, Little Bear is a charming English picture book now available at Kalimat Bookstore Online. The story invites children to settle down for bedtime with a gentle routine that includes a sweet kiss from Mother Bear. Then Father Bear lifts Little Bear onto his shoulders for a short ride to the bedroom, setting the stage for a playful hide‑and‑seek adventure that delights young readers.

When Father Bear reaches the room, he “discovers” that Little Bear has vanished. He searches high and low—under the kitchen stove, inside the woodbox, and even out in the garden.
