From a balloon-filled sky to the deep blue. ![]() Yoon’s simple, subtly textured shapes bright colors and eloquent, economic language invite readers to be part of the story without dictating how they should feel, making the happy ending all the more touching and satisfying. Award-winning artist Salina Yoons spectacular display of kinetic art immerses readers in a colorful, poetic journey. It’s these feelings, rather than an obligatory or on-high dictate of “right and wrong,” that propel Bear on a comprehensive search for bunny’s owner-an impressive show of competence, thoroughness, and agency that also enables Bear to endure when the owner comes forward. As much as Bear wants to keep the bunny, he also empathizes with the “bunny’s family” (they “must be so worried”) and the cuddly but impassive bunny itself.
