Christmas is almost here! Little Bear can smell it?and so can you! The air is filled with the aroma of gingerbread cookies, minty candy canes, the piney Christmas tree, and yummy hot apple pie. Celebrate the holiday season with this classic Golden storybook which includes six scratch-and-sniff scents.

I almost cried when I saw it

I got this book for Xmas when I was 5...i remember making my mom read and re-read it over and over again, no matter what the holiday.

When perusing the bookstore one day I saw it on the shelf and HAD to get it for my 1 year old son on his first christmas. I seriously almost cried when i saw it as my original had recently gotten lost somewhere at my parent's house.

This book is an 80s classic that never gets old...I loved it as a child and now love reading it to my boys...no matter what the holiday is!

Childhood classic

I had this book as a child. I'm now 26 and my mom pulls it out every year. The one I had finally lost all the scent so we repurchased this so that my niece and nephews could have the same great experience I had. This book is a wonderful reminder of my childhood and Christmas

Cute Book

Very cute book for little ones. Was not impressed with the scratch and sniff. The odors were not strong enough or were not there at all.

scratch & sniffs defective :-(

My child loves this book ( she assumes it is the Little Bear from the TV series she loves too) and after enjoying it at someone else's house, I bought it only to find only one of the scratch & sniff stickers that works (the pine tree). One was entirely missing (chocolate) , and the rest have absolutely no smell and are shiny like they never had the microencapsulated smell particles applied. Such a disappointment, since the story is all about smelling the smells! Seems like others have had this problem too.
I decided to buy smell stickers myself from a website and put them in the book. More expensive, but at least it will work for sure. We will have to get by with cinnamon smell for the gingerbread boy as I couldn't find gingerbread stickers.
I also wrote to Random House, but am not really expecting them to have replacement stickers.
