Bear organizes the hibernation station with all of the animals in order to prepare for winter. There are some bumps along the way but everything works out in the end.I really liked the bright illustrations and all of the problems that go along with trying to get all of the animals together to hibernate. The illustrations really made this book fun and they were large enough for kids to see from a distance and detailed enough to know what was going on. Hibernation Station is a warm and fuzzy book about all of the forest animals prepping for winter. The mamas and papas and babies line up at Hibernation Station, squishing into the train. When all of the animals are packed in, the animals face the uncomfortable nights of rooming with so many forest animals. Once the bears get the train on the roll, though, all of the animals cuddle and fall fast asleep for hibernation.This is book has an audience ranging from pre-k to 2nd grade. This book would appeal to pre-k and kindergarten students because of the vibrant illustrations and sing-song rhyme of the text. The appeal to 1st and 2nd graders comes from the learning experience about hibernations. In my classroom, I would use this book prior to the first snowfall. We would talk about the hibernation of animals and discuss the reasons why animals hibernate as well as the prep work that goes into hibernation. In my younger classrooms, I would have the children act out hibernation's procedures by letting the children collect a few things that they would need to stay safe and sound ALL winter long!
