Something New for a Bear to Do
(Red Fox)
978-0099301431, RRP £4.50, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Being a bear becomes boring for Mr Manders so, one morning he tries his hand - or rather his paws (not to mention his voice) - at being a songbird, an ant, a spider, a mole and a bee. His abortive attempts leave poor Mr Manders feeling foolish and it's down to young Edward James, his ursine friend, to restore his sagging spirits with some timely egoboosting words before the pair adjourn for tea. Reg Cartwright's distinctively expressive style makes each turn of the page a delight.
