Recommended for - Babies/Toddlers/Younger Readers




Oh Bear - last time you were lost in the storm, now you're feeling ill...

When Bear feels ill, it's up to his friends to try and make him feel better. But will they succeed without feeling ill themselves?

Another heart-warming tale of our favourite furry friend, and also known as Bear Feels Sick, it's once more up to Bear's friends to help him with his latest woe. I really do love the fact that they spend so much time making him feel better, only to end up with the same trouble as him, with Bear taking his turn to look after them at the end. A great message for children as to what friendship is about!

I've mentioned this before, but I love how the special duvet that was made for Bear keeps cropping up in the other books - it's a small, but delightful piece of continuity, and I love little touches like this that show the author and illustrator care.

Only one more book in the Bear series to go :(

9/10
