Explaining the passage of time is challenging, even to adults. Some moments race by, others drag more slowly. That’s certainly how the young teddy bear in this story experiences it through a busy, quickly-slowly day.

Here come the Bears! The Book Hungry Bears! Hungry for Books and stories to share!  

Our Book Hungry Bears – Crystal, Boomer, Melody and Scout – LOVE picture books.  Every day they go on adventures in a beautiful paper world in search of a book they can share, catching books which flit and flutter like birds amid the paper trees in their magical world.

Every adventure finishes with the bears successfully finding a story book to share.  They cuddle up close and settle down to enjoy the story, always checking first: ‘Is everybody “close and comfy”?’  The bears share their delight and engagement with the book as they ask each other questions, point to the illustrations and get caught up in the story.

The bears’ adventures take place in a crafted world of paper and cardboard that every family can recreate on their kitchen table.  Every tree, bush and flower the bears hide behind, every squirrel and rabbit they meet, has been created from card or paper in simple forms that all children will recognise.
