PreS-Gr 2--Chipmunk and Bear return in this fun-filled story. Bear loves everything about going to the beach--the sun, the sand, the water, fish, etc. Chipmunk does not like it at all. When Bear asks him why he came along, Chipmunk simply responds, "I came to be with you." This is a sweet and endearing story about two friends who just want to be together. Vibrant and silly cartoon spreads will delight young children. The minimal text is accessible, and the repeated refrain is perfect for pre- and emergent readers. Children are in for a surprise and giggle when Bear says he hopes he sees a big fish. VERDICT A satisfying seasonal story about the beach but also about best buds.--Megan McGinnis, Sachem Public Library, Holbrook, NY
