We're Going on a Bear Hunt cover

For brave hunters and bear-lovers, the classic chant-aloud by Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury.

Follow and join in the family's excitement as they wade through the grass, splash through the river and squelch through the mud in search of a bear. What a surprise awaits them in the cave on the other side of the dark forest!

Beautifully produced, written and illustrated, this is a classic work for any age at any period. * The Independent on Sunday *
