"These wittily illustrated stories of mishaps, hurt feelings, fondness and friendship have a transporting quality." Guardian on Bear and Bird: The Picnic and Other Stories
Bear and Bird are best friends! And while they don't always understand each other, they both agree: all they want is to make the other happy. So, when Bird feels poorly, Bear arrives with a backpack of goodies to make her feel better. And when they hang out with Mole - who tells absolutely hilarious jokes! - Bird realizes she doesn't need to compete for Bear's attention; that there is lots of laughter to go around...
Full of comic mix-ups and misunderstandings, as well as genuine warmth and affection, these four stories are the third instalment in an irresistibly charming chapter book series from award-winning creator Jarvis.
