Why Homeschool Families Love Book and Bear
“This is the one box my son with ADHD gets excited about. He reads the whole book the same day the box arrives!”
- Jessica, Homeschool Mom, CA

Built for Different Learning Styles
Whether your child is a budding zoologist, a reluctant reader, or thrives when learning hands-on, Book and Bear meets them where they are.
Our boxes are especially helpful for children with ASD and ADHD, who often connect deeply with animals. We use that special interest to gently draw them into books—through cuddly plush-making crafts, curiosity-driven stories, and sensory-friendly experiences.
✨ Learning Should Be Cozy, Creative & Fun
Let your child fall in love with reading through their love of animals.
Choose your box, use your educational funds, and watch them light up with curiosity.
Frequently Asked Questions
When will my order ship?
Subscription orders placed by the last day of the month will ship in the middle of the coming month. Be sure to provide your best email at checkout to receive your shipping notifications and tracking numbers.
How do subscriptions work with Classwallet?
The products on this page are all approved by your state for using your Direct Pay Class Wallet Funds. Only prepaid subscriptions are approved, so you can choose to prepay 3, 6 or 9 months of Monthly Deliveries.
Recurring subscriptions are not approved, so if you start a recurring subscription, it will be treated as a single box order of our current box. As long as we have stock, we can fill these orders, but please understand that we may need to substitute or delay your single box order due to stocking limitations.
Can I use my funds for recurring subscriptions?
The short answer: No. State funding only allows for prepaid subscriptions.
How do I contact Book and Bear if I have questions?
The fastest way to reach us is to email us at: contact@bookandbear.com
What if the animal my child wants is out of stock?
After a remarkable Christmas Season, all of our single boxes are SOLD OUT. Our next opportunity to catch up on past animals will be our Christmas in July Sale. Subscribers' orders are guaranteed to be in stock as long as the order is received by the end of the previous month.
Do you restock sold out animals?
Not at this time. Single box inventory are all subscription boxes from past months, and once they're gone, they're gone. Popular animals may make a return appearance in a few years.
Some animals have been discontinued by the manufacturer and we are no longer able to restock.😢
