Description

When Bearnard gets an invitation to be in a book, it's a dream come true! But as he reads up on what starring in a book might actually entail, he wonders if he's not quite the right bear for the part. With the help of his friend Gertie, Bearnard discovers that to shine in his story, he just needs to be himself. With sweet humor, charming characters, and a gentle message of self-confidence, this is the perfect story for book (and bear) lovers. - Godwin Books -

"Open Bearnard's book for an alternative concept of bravery with humor, sweetness, and friendship at the core." --Kirkus Reviews on Bearnard's Book

"Readers will delight in spotting the classic bears that Bearnard studies rendered in books throughout the scenes. Saburi's illustrations, sweet rounded figures in spring tones, soften Bearnard's panic, gentling his worry-riddled journey to discover that, in stories as in life, "All you need to do is be yourself."" --Publishers Weekly on Bearnard's Book
