Editorial Reviews

A Bear in My Sky is simply perfect. It is so good, the

adult who is reading it to a child, will wish to be the child!

Magical, enchanting, — no superlative is too much. This

bear belongs among the classic bears of children's literature,

for a whole new generation of grandmas, grandpas, parents,

and lucky children.

Writing Alone and With Others, and How the Light Gets In:

Writing as a Spiritual Practice, both from Oxford University Press.

A Bear in My Sky is a charming book of creative word

play and reading fun. Diggaby Bear confronts many of

the same emotions that children face in life:

embarrassment, curiosity, frustration, fear, and love.

This is a classic book on friendship. A must read.

— Susan K. Field, author
