In this 32-page picture book, Bear tells the story of going to the doctor for a "well child" checkup and immunizations before starting school. The text is in English and Spanish, and the photographs feature a racially diverse cast of actual medical professionals performing the procedures they normally do during a checkup.

Well Bear, Brave Bear is now being distributed to patients 3 to 6 years of age at the pediatric clinics of the Hennepin County Medical Center in Minnesota. It is also carried by the Minneapolis Public Library.
