About this ebook

Kind Mr. Bear is very kind. He's always happy to help those in need. But the animals in the forest are so used to him being there, they start to take his help for granted. Then one day Mr. Bear gets sick, and finds himself all alone in his cave. Will anyone come to help him?

This touching title from award winning author/illustrator Steve Smallman shows that when it comes to true friends, kindness is something to give as well as receive.

Beautifully illustrated, QEB’s Storytime series introduces young children to the pleasures of reading and sharing stories. Featuring charming animal and human characters, the books explore important social and emotional themes like friendship, gratitude, perseverance, and overcoming fears. A Next Steps page at the back provides guidance for parents and teachers.
