Another wonderful tale from the 'OLD BEAR' series, based on her own toy collection - Rated
by the excellent author/illustrator, Ms Jane Hissey.
This review refers to the RED FOX paperback/1999.
32 high quality shiny pages, wonderfully illustrated throughout.
This story is all about the arrival of a new character, and friend, for 'Old Bear' and friends.
`It's the middle of the night when Hoot, a small woolly owl, wakes the toys with a ghostly `Whooo'!
After an exciting night-time adventure, Hoot has a special surprise for Little Bear and his friends.........'
Example of text:-
`It was the middle of the night and all the toys should have been fast asleep.
But Little Bear was wide awake.
He leaned over and tugged at Rabbit's ear.
`Wake up,' he whispered. `I heard a funny noise.'
`What sort of noise?' muttered Rabbit, sleepily.
`Well, first there was a thump and then a Whooo,' said Little Bear.
`Do you think it was a ghost?'
`Probably just the wind outside,' said Rabbit, sitting up and staring into the darkness.
Then they both heard the noise.
Whooo.
`It doesn't really sound like the wind, does it?' said Little Bear, nervously.......'
The 'Old Bear' series of books are all based on the harmless and captivating 'toys-coming-to-life' theme.
Fabulous bedtime story for younger children and for the slightly older child, to read along with.
Another excellent book with beautiful illustrations. - Rated
If your children like Jane Hissey at all, they will love this book. The rather surreal owl is a favourite character for my sons , ages 5 and 3.
