Beschreibung

Full of funny mix-ups and comic misunderstandings, as well as genuine warmth and affection, these four stories are the start of an irresistibly charming new chapter book series from award-winning creator Jarvis. "These wittily illustrated stories of mishaps, hurt feelings, fondness and friendship have a transporting quality, ideal for 5+." GuardianBear 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 Bear forgets to pack for a picnic (but pretends that he didn't), Bird doesn't let on that she knew all along. And when Bird discovers that Bear has more of a certain talent than she does, well, Bear finds a touching way to make her feel better... "Bear and Bird has all the charm and wisdom of Julian Gough and Jim Field's Rabbit and Bear series ... The illustrations are glorious." Irish Independent "Jarvis's digital drawings, in beautiful colors, have an attractive handmade feel." The New York Times Book Review Readers can enjoy lots more Bear and Bird adventures!
