Résumé :
Ursa Major: The Nostoi of Ulysses the Bear is a hardcover collection of story books seven through twelve in the Ursa Major coloring book series: The Bear who Struggled to Sleep, The Bear buried in a Stressful Mess, The Bear in a Fight with Fleas, The Bear who needed a Door for his Den, The Bear whose plans got Rained Out, and The Bear whose Tree fell from the Apple. These are multilevel educational and entertainment books intended to build vocabulary, drive curiosity and a thirst for science, and inspire. Each pair of pages features the story of the bear as told from a third-person perspective, a charcoal-esque black-and-white picture that can be colorized with pencils, and an introductory factoid intended to encourage further study.

Older readers should pay more notice to the footnotes than the story....
