What is The Bear Behind about?
Ivor would do anything to avoid attention, so his first day at school is already worrying enough. Then he discovers a huge, mischievous bear hiding behind him! As the bear causes chaos during colouring, story time, dressing up and play time, Ivor’s ordinary school day becomes an unforgettable adventure. With new friends to make and plenty of surprises along the way, Ivor begins to find his voice and learns that starting school might not be quite as scary as he expected.
