Bear and Bird: The Adventure and Other Stories

Bear and Bird are the very best of friends—even when feelings get a little tangled.

In this heartwarming collection of four laugh-out-loud tales, Bear tries to cheer up a gloomy Bird with his finest, most wobbly rendition of The Dance. Bird, meanwhile, isn’t quite sure how to feel when Bear starts laughing a little too hard at Mole’s jokes. Is it jealousy? Is it rainclouds? however, Bird eventually realizes that she doesn’t need to compete for Bear’s attention, since there’s plenty of laughter to go around!

From mysterious holes (with very serious warning signs) to days spent doing absolutely nothing (together), Bear and Bird: The Adventure and Other Stories is a tender, hilarious celebration of the little misunderstandings and big feelings that come with being someone’s favorite someone. Perfect for early readers and full of charm, this is friendship at its most delightfully wonky.
