We're going on a bear hunt [board book] / Michael Rosen, [illustrated by] Helen Oxenbury.

Rosen, Michael, 1946- (author.). Oxenbury, Helen, (illustrator.).

Summary:

A typically wonderful Oxenbury family sets out with gusto on a bear hunt, and the old story comes to life. Paintings are simply marvelous ... Rosen's retelling is spare, with a driving rhythm, and some new sounds add sparkle to the traditional tale. A predictable story in which brave bear hunters go through grass, a river, mud, and other obstacles before the inevitable encounter with the bear forces a headlong retreat.
