What is Bob's Beard about?
Bob is a gentle giant who wants to be friends with the animals in the wood, but they are frightened by his enormous size and run away whenever he comes near. Then Bob grows a long, bushy beard, and the woodland creatures discover that it can be useful in surprising ways. As Bob helps one animal after another, fear turns into trust. Soon, his remarkable beard brings him laughter, kindness and a whole host of new friends in this warm, rhyming tale.
