PRODUCT INFORMATION

Description

Just you and me and the stars. I’m as happy as can be...

Bear and Bird are best friends! And while they don't always understand each other, they both agree: all they want it to make the other happy. So, when Bear gobbles up the special, surprise cake Bird made for him, Bird laughs and laughs. And when Bird gets completely lost after sitting on a rock with legs, Bear comes to the rescue, on a walking rock of his own...

Full of funny mix-ups and comic misunderstandings, as well as genuine warmth and affection, these four stories are the second instalment in an irresistibly charming new chapter book series from award-winning creator Jarvis.

Critic Reviews

These hardcover short chapter books are great for those at the beginning of their learning to read journey. The stories are full of the warmth of friendship and the joy of silly adventures. With colourful illustrations that are so easy and fun to read they make great bedtime stories too. Good Reading Magazine
Gorgeously illustrated and written with warmth and gentle humour, the escapades perfectly capture the highs and lows of friendship with laughs, frustrations, dreams and forgiveness. Solidified in delightful misunderstandings and warm-hearted mishaps, Bear and Bird is sweetness by the bucketload. The pair ambling through life in high spirits and with good-hearted intentions, blissfully unaware of much of what is going on, is highly amusing and readers will delight in knowing what is happening long before the protagonists do.
