Description

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

What a surprise awaits them in the cave on the other side of the dark forest!

Reviews

Beautifully produced, written and illustrated, this is a classic work for any age at any period. * The Independent on Sunday * With such a partnership, how can this gorgeous great picture-book rhyme fail? * The Guardian * Lovely to read aloud and beautiful to look at. * The Sunday Times *
