Bear has lost his glasses.
He must have left them at Giraffe’s.
On his way to his friend, Bear sees animals he’s never seen before!

‘Could be at all possible that there are a few of you still out there unaware of the great golden glory that is Leo Timmers?’ – School Library Journal
‘A humorous, delightful tale about finding wonderful new ways to see the world.’ – Kirkus Reviews
‘The best jokes are the simplest ones, and the joke at the heart of Leo Timmers’ new book is perfectly simple and very good indeed … Leo Timmers’ timing is impeccable, his characters wonderfully expressive.’ ***** Books for Keeps, Book of the Month
‘…A terrific, tongue-in-cheek comical delight that puts forward the possibility that seeing with one’s imagination is preferable to viewing reality. Little ones will relish Timmers’ tale of discovering – albeit accidentally – new ways of seeing the world and loudly correcting him with regard to the misidentifies flora and fauna.’ – Red Reading HUB
