If I was to recommend it to someone it would be to any age of people like a Child or a teenager who has not yet red it. I enjoyed the book, but I thought that the end was too sad. I liked Tiny the best because he reminded me of my friend. I would recommend it to older children. It was too sad for a 7-year-old. I really liked this book even though it was sad at the end and made me cry. I think everyone should.read it. There are many classroom exercises you could do with this book. The class could write a story with a different ending if Roxanne stayed with the bear, what would have happened? They could act out the book and play different characters showing the different emotions from each character. They could also write a diary from one of the characters point of view and how they felt about the bear being in their village.It's about an old man who only cares for money ( Roxanne's grandfather) and how he manipulates his grand daughter to use the bear for monetary gain.

In Russia and Siberia, cubs were for centuries captured for being used as dancing bears accompanying tavern musicians ( skomorokhi), as depicted in the Travels of Adam Olearius. [3] My favourite animal is a dog. We have a Labrador and he is the most loving and affectionate animal ever. This book is wonderful to read as it’s written from someone else’s point of view looking on at Roxanne and Bruno’s relationship. It would be great to read with a Key Stage 2 class, the story is short, captivating and has a grown up edge with serious subject matters. It is easy to read and has beautiful charcoal illustrations which capture the story wonderfully.Findeizen, Nikolai (2008). History of Music in Russia from Antiquity to 1800, Vol. 1: From Antiquity to the Beginning of the Eighteenth Century. Indiana University Press. p.201. ISBN 978-0-253-02637-8. In 1994, HARIBO took the final step to fully acquire Dunhills. It set about revolutionising the UK’s sweets market and went on to create its own unique mixes, bringing family favourites together in one bag to create what have become the UK’s most popular sweets. A son and grandson of actors, Michael has acting in his blood and enjoys collaborating and performing live adaptations of his books at festivals, concerts and theatres. Tigers and Wolves! Although I have a soft spot for some of the smaller furries such as otters. Too cute! A short story from Morpurgo, but complete in its plot and character development. An orphaned bear is adopted by a girl in a mountain village, despite her father's protestations. The bear brings about prosperity and tourism to the people, and when a music video crew later visit to film a famous singer's latest pop video, life will change yet again.

In November 2016 Michael Morpurgo won the J M Barrie Award for his contribution to children’s literature.This award is given every year by Action for Children’s Arts to a “children’s arts practitioner” whose lifetime’s work has delighted children and will stand the test of time. I read The Dancing Bear by M.Morpurgo. l enjoyed this book because it taught good morals and was a very kind and caring story. My favourite character is the bear because he was always happy for Roxie and never wanted to go against her and her decisions. I would recommend this book to all age groups but maybe more advanced readers.Hello Yellow - 80 Books to Help Children Nurture Good Mental Health and Support With Anxiety and Wellbeing - The animated movie Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted features a bear named Sonya who is trained to ride a unicycle. Sonya is considerably more animalistic than the other anthropomorphic animals in the film. Every girl will devour this incredibly poignant story of a young girl who adopts an abandoned bear cub. The Dancing Bear’ is a short story about an elderly teacher, who watches a young girl adopt a bear cub into her family and build a beautiful friendship with it as they grow up together. Roxanne, the young girl, fights to keep her bear living in their country town as he grows larger. As she ages into a woman, Roxanne visits her bear less and less, he becomes desolate and less responsive in her absence. A film crew then arrives, wishing to use the town and the bear in their music video. The quiet, country town is suddenly turned into a set, the people into extras and Roxanne has to decide whether she will leave to pursue her talents or stay with her friends and family.
