What is Frida and Bear about?
Frida and Bear love drawing, but neither knows what to draw. Frida begins with a simple shape, and Bear transforms it into a surprising picture. Then Bear makes a shape for Frida, who adds her own ideas. Back and forth they play, discovering animals, objects and possibilities in every line. As their drawings grow, so does their friendship. This gentle, imaginative picture book invites children to look closely, think creatively and join in with the shape game.
