Reviews
'Gemma enjoyed reading it and loved the pictures. She thought that the little bear was really cheeky. A good night-time read.'
-- Debbie with Gemma (7), Education Otherwise, October 2005
'This is a story for children who just won't go to bed on time. This is a charming book with beautiful, soft focus illustrations. My seven-year-old was able to read it for herself, but it would be suitable for reading aloud to any child aged three and over.'
-- Jo Rogers, Families Online (www.familiesonline.co.uk), Autumn 2005
'This is a story that both parents and children will identify with. It is beautifully illustrated by an award-winning artist whose paintings capture both the mood of the story and the characteristics of brown bears.'
-- School Librarian, Spring 2006
'A fun, playful tale that is complemented with large watercolour-style illustrations.'
-- Family Interest, October 2005
'This is a lovely story which is beautifully illustrated.'
--Creative Steps, Nov/Dec 2006
