Little Bear and the Butterflies

Book excerpt: “What was your favourite game when you were little?” Little Bear asks Mummy Bear. When she tells her it was chasing butterflies in Bluebell Meadow, Little Bear is intrigued, but it’s time for her nap. When a butterfly lands on her nose, she sets out to find Bluebell Meadow with the help of her animal friends. Chasing the butterflies and making daisy chains is so much fun she completely forgets the time! “I wish I could stay here forever,” she yawns, when a soft voice tells her to wake up. Could it all have been a dream?A gentle story about a little bear and the power of dreams, with a magical twist at the end. The stunning illustrations and heartwarming characters will make this book a special treat for bedtime reading. Author and Illustrator Information: Susan Quinn became a children’s librarian at 23. Her experiences as a mother and playing in a meadow full of bluebells as a child inspired her to write Little Bear and the Butterflies.
