Trade Review“A truly lovely tale in celebration of daddy and baby bears, with gorgeous, warm illustrations.”
* The Bookseller *
“The text perfectly catches some of those special interactions between parent and child, and illustrator Emily Hughes makes the bears particularly endearing.” * Andrea Reece, LoveReading *
The immediate pleasure of A Brave Bear by Sean Taylor and Emily Hughes is in the comfortable, assured rhythm of the writing. [...] The story also has a spring in its step and is a delightful account of a father/son relationship - one that will stay warm no matter how cool the river gets. * The Observer *
