Summary

A super-snowy, larger-than-life picture book about the importance of telling the truth, from bestselling award-winners Sam Copeland and Pippa Curnick

Description

From the creators of the bestselling The Bear Behind, comes a hilarious snowy tale about what happens when little fibs begin to snowball . . .

Ivor has a Bear Behind - a great big, booming bear who has the habit of appearing at just the wrong time.

So the morning Ivor wakes up to the most magical, glittering blanket of snow, he's determined to keep his Bear Behind hidden away and enjoy his snow day.

But when a little fib slips out about his sledging skills, his lie begins to snowball out of control . . . and so does his very silly, very chilly Bear Behind!

A rip-roaringly funny, super-duper snowy picture book about the importance of telling the truth. Written by Sam Copeland, the bestselling author of Charlie Changes into a Chicken, with bold, bright illustrations by Pippa Curnick, creator of the award-winning Indigo Wilde series.

(The Bear Behind was a two-time Top 10 Official Indie Children's Bestseller in 2023 - via Litalist, Sept and Nov 2023)
