Albie arrived wearing NOTHING but fur, he could have been either a Him or Her...Most teddy bears let their owner decide, but Albie would not, for a bear has its pride.
But each outfit that Albie purchases from fairy to pirate, from cowboy to elegant city gent proves unsuitable in some way, and by the end of the week his bedroom is heaped with discarded clothes. How will he dress in order to feel like himself
A hilarious story in verse that's great to read aloud, about dressing up and one bear's search for his own identity.
This laugh-out-loud rhyming story blends funny, powerful and highly-engaging themes of empowerment, roles and sharing with hilariously bold illustrations. School Reading List
A joyously unique read about finding your own identity. Book and Gift blogger
