Dear Bear ISBN: 9780006643616
Harrison, Joanna
Published by Lions, 1994
Kate is afraid of the bear under the stairs. She really only thinks about him at night, but she does worry. She finally tells her mum, who suggests she writes the bear a letter to ask him to go away. This institutes a considerable correspondence with the bear, culminating in Katie's being asked to tea with him in the cupboard. She goes - bravely - and finds a large stuffed teddy, sitting with tea nicely spread, waiting for her. The last note from the bear asks her to take him upstairs to live with her. Funny and lovely.
Age: 4+
