“A truly lovely tale in celebration of daddy and baby bears, with gorgeous, warm illustrations.”<i> </i>
The Bookseller
“The text perfectly catches some of those special interactions between parent and child, and illustrator Emily Hughes makes the bears particularly endearing.”
Andrea Reece, LoveReading
The immediate pleasure of A Brave Bear by Sean Taylor and Emily Hughes is in the comfortable, assured rhythm of the writing. [...] The story also has a spring in its step and is a delightful account of a father/son relationship - one that will stay warm no matter how cool the river gets.
