My Review

Full of brilliant sounds, potential for acting out the story, rich in imagination and with gorgeous watercolour illustrations, this is a book we all know (sometimes too) well! It adds another dimension to any walk in the woods or tramp through the fields, and has just the right amount of peril in to merit a good cuddle on the sofa at the end of the story, hidden under the inevitable blanket!

Heads Up!

Publisher Review

For brave hunters and bear-lovers, the classic chant-aloud by Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury in a large board book edition. We're going on a bear hunt. We're going to catch a big one. Will you come too? For a quarter of a century, readers have been swishy-swashying and splash-sploshing through this award-winning favourite. Follow and join in the family's excitement as they wade through the grass, splash through the river and squelch through the mud in search of a bear. What a surprise awaits them in the cave on the other side of the dark forest!
