Publisher's Synopsis

"These wittily illustrated stories of mishaps, hurt feelings, fondness and friendship have a transporting quality, ideal for 5+." Guardian

Bear and Bird are best friends! And while they don't always understand each other, they both agree: all they want is to make the other happy. So, when Bear and Bird find they both want to collect the same stick, they are absolutely determined not to let it get in the way of their friendship. And when Bird accidentally swaps Bear's bouncy ball on Swapsy Day, she will give anything to get it back - even her own lucky hat.

Full of comic mix-ups and misunderstandings, as well as genuine warmth and affection, these four stories are the fourth instalment in this irresistibly charming chapter book series from award-winning creator Jarvis. Bear and Bird are fast becoming a firm favourite and their adventures are perfect to read aloud, or for children who are ready to start reading by themselves.
