Review by School Library Journal Review
PreS-This contemporary classic loses nothing in its translation. Both text and illustration merge beautifully to captivate the attention of beginning readers. Carle's vibrant double-page collage illustrations fascinate, while Mlawer's translation retains the melodic quality of the original question-and-response text. The repetitive format of the book makes learning the names of the colors and animals an enjoyable experience. This fine-quality Spanish translation is an engagingly interactive read-aloud for both groups and one-on-one sharing.-Zahra Baird, Scarsdale Public Library, NY (c) Copyright 2010.

Review by Horn Book Review
A companion to [cf2]Oso pardo, oso pardo, ¿qué ves ahí?[cf1], the Spanish version of [cf2]Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear?[cf1] reads smoothly as the animals roar, hiss, growl, and croak. Carle's familiar double-page spread collages are stimulating companions to the zoological soundtrack. From HORN BOOK Spring 2003, (c) Copyright 2010.
