No Sleep for Bear

Duncan Beedie

Bear is back! The lovable hero of Waterstones Children's Book Prize shortlisted The Bear Who Stared is getting into more scrapes in this irresistible follow-up title from Duncan Beedie. Winter is approaching and it's time for Bear to have a nice long sleep . . . but the more he tries to get to sleep, the more AWAKE he feels. So he decides to copy his forest friends who seem to doze off without any trouble: he sings in the trees like a Blackbird, burrows underground like a Badger, and even hangs upside down from his cave roof like a bat. But nothing works - until wise Frog shows him how to relax, and soon the forest is reverberating with his snores! A perfect bedtime story that will strike a chord with all parents of fidgety, wriggly, wide-awake children!
