When Mr Bear decides to become a pilot and offers his friends a ride, they really don't want to go. How they finally finish up in the plane and then, eventually, in a tree, is told with the Hawkins' usual exuberance and jollity. The boldly printed narrative is in clear prose, while the speech bubbles are all in rhyming couplets which adds an extra interest for very new readers as, of course, do the comical illustrations. Great fun and highly recommended.
