Perfectly pitched for children moving on from picture books, each story follows grumpy, know-it-all Rabbit and gentle, wise Bear as they bumble through valley life. Packed with warmth and silliness, this set is an ideal gift for emerging readers aged 5 to 8. About the Books: The series begins with Rabbit's Bad Habits , where Bear wakes early from hibernation to build a snowman, only for Rabbit to insist he can do better - until an avalanche and a hungry wolf remind them that friendship beats competition. In The Pest in the Nest , Rabbit's fury at Bear's snoring sends him into the branches, where he learns to see the world differently. Attack of the Snack brings a splashing Mysterious Thing to the lake that might be a tiny owl or a huge monster. A Bite in the Night brings flying trees and an enormous crunch as a new creature shakes up the valley, while A Bad King is a Sad Thing sees a bullying Icebear arrive, forcing Rabbit and Bear to stand up for what's fair. Finally, This Lake is Fake! follows Rabbit's obsession with being the best swimmer, teaching lessons about acceptance. Gough's playful writing and Field's illustrations create short chapters perfect for reading aloud, with themes of friendship and empathy running through every story. Six complete paperback stories in one great-value collection. Short, illustrated chapters ideal for bedtime or first solo reading. Builds empathy and problem-solving through relatable animal characters. Praised by Neil Gaiman and Eoin Colfer, translated into thirty languages. A natural next
