    Description

    ?Everyone’s frightened we all feel afraid,
    But the more that you face it the more it will fade.

    Bear isn’t scared of his snuggly lair or of his best friend, Hare, but he is scared of pretty much everything else. And when he starts to feel that he’s missing out, the two embark on a mission to discover that special something that unlocks Bear’s courage and reignites his love for life. The Scarediest Bear is the story of how courage can be found in the most unexpected places.

    This reassuring, funny story by Frances Stickley, stylishly illustrated by Alice McKinley, is the perfect way to open up discussions about worries and anxiety with young children.

    Children won’t be able to resist adorable double-act Bear and Hare as they take on their fears, one step at a time. 

    • Perfect for any child who feels anxious or worried about trying new things
    • Alice McKinley’s adorable illustrations are irresistible and full of sweet moments as well as laughs
    • A cosy book that makes a perfect bedtime story

    Laura's recommendation comes just in time for the cinema release of Project Hail Mary🚀
"I initially picked up Project Hail Mary on a whim in preparation for the film release, with sci-fi not being my preferred genre. However, this book surpassed all of my expectations in the best way possible. It was fun, emotional and intellectually stimulating at the same time! It really surprised me how much I loved this story, and how much I enjoyed the buddy comedy element through Ryland and Rocky’s friendship! The sci-fi elements were easy to follow for someone who feels out of their depth when it comes to science."
