Can You See a Little Bear?

By James Mayhew
Illustrated by Jackie Morris

A look-and-find book with a difference!

Page by page, very young children can explore the theatrical and circus settings, follow the simple clues in the read-aloud nursery verse and try to find Little Bear, whether he's trying on a hat, standing on his head or floating in a balloon. But gradually Little Bear moves into a more familiar landscape of tea, bath and bed time: a cue for little bears' bedtimes everywhere!

  • Opposites, colours and contrasts are introduced to very young readers.
