Pocket Bear by Katherine Applegate is a tender, thoughtful story that opens the door to big conversations in a very approachable way—perfect for reading together as a family.Told from the perspective of a small stuffed bear with a very big heart, this book explores what it means to belong, to be brave, and to hold onto hope when the world feels uncertain. Pocket Bear’s journey is gentle but powerful, touching on themes of home, kindness, and the quiet ways love shows up in our lives. Applegate’s signature warmth and clarity make the story accessible for younger readers while still resonating deeply with adults.
The discussion will be led by Trinity Lutheran school Librarian, Breanne Gibson.
