Meet your new bedtime companion

One very special bear.
So many places to lose him.

From her very first days, a little girl has a friend by her side: a soft, squishy, purple bear. He’s there for the car rides, the adventures, and the quiet moments in between.

But when Bear goes missing, the smallest question can feel like the biggest thing in the world.

Told in rhyme and brought to life with colorful crayon-style illustrations, Where’s Bear? is a warm story about childhood comfort, family love, and the stuffed friend who means everything.

A little look inside

Every page, a little heart.
