A fantastic, funny story from the reliably brilliant, multi-award-winning creator of Tidy, Meerkat Mail, and Monkey and Me that children will love to join in with.

All Bear wants is a quiet nap... but he can't work out who is keeping him awake with their cheep cheeping. An increasingly frustrated bear leaves his cosy cave to ask the other animals, but they none of them cheep. Maybe the culprit is closer to home?

Everyone will love meeting all the animals, and joining in with their familiar noises, in this very funny, warm, and beautifully illustrated story. Multi-award-winning Emily Gravett is at the height of her powers in this wonderful rhyming tale with a surprise comic ending.

About the Author

Emily Gravett has a rare talent for creating exceptional books for children. The winner of two CILIP Kate Greenaway Medals, her skill and wit are second to none. Emily first sprang into the limelight with the ground-breaking Wolves, which has been followed by such modern classics as Meerkat Mail, Little Mouse's Big Book of Fears, Monkey and Me and Again! and the fabulous Bear and Hare series for younger readers, as well as the beautiful Tidy, Old Hat, Cyril and Pat and Meerkat Christmas. Each book is unique and different from the last – and each features endearing, beautifully drawn characters that touch the heart and tickle the funny bone. Emily lives in Brighton with her family.
