Whether you’re at the beach or hiding inside on a rainy day; whether you’re having tea with a friend or reading a book by yourself; whether you’re happy and bouncing or grumpy or sick, it’s always nice to have an always there bear. He can play with you, cuddle you, and snuggle you to sleep. He likes birthdays and trampolines and sand castles and puddles. It doesn’t matter if you’re tired or sulky or shy or scared—you’ll never be lonely with your bear by your side. He will keep you company, he will cheer you on, and he will even make you feel braver. He always understands you, and most importantly, he promises to love you, forever and always, no matter what.

This is a quiet, gentle, soothing book, wonderful for comforting little ones or preparing them for peaceful sleep. It’s a reassuring and heartwarming story of unconditional love and companionship throughout experiences of all kinds. Gareth Llewhellin’s sweet illustrations complement the text, and Trudi Granger’s beautifully written story works magic with its simplicity. For anyone who loved The Quiet Book, Always There Bear is just as special and just as perfect for quiet moments and trouble-free bedtimes.

Always There Bear Reviews

  • Sidra

    Such a cute little book encompassing the relationship little children have with their teddy bears. It's a perfect book to introduce to kids during their early years yet equally relatable for adult.

  • Viviane Elbee

    A concept book about lovable teddy bear companions.

    Almost every sentence ends with the word bear, which gives it a rhyming sound, and most sentences have a good rhythm - "A sunny, sandy, seaside bear... a read a book alone bear... a sulky, grouchy, grumpy bear...a bright and blowy, fly a kite bear."

    The illustrations are cute. Strands of hair seem drawn with a brown color pencil and contrast nicely with the rest of the imagery.

    Kids thought it was a very cute book.

    So cute! I am using this for my teddy bear storytime. It has short and simple text so could be used for a preschool audience.
