"Making The Bear and the Piano and seeing the reaction it has had, has been one of the most incredible things to happen to me in my life." - David Litchfield

A special 10th anniversary edition of the award-winning and best-selling The Bear and the Piano, featuring exclusive bonus content, a pull-out poster, and a shiny gold roundel on the cover. A moving tale of exploration and belonging from critically acclaimed author David Litchfield.

One day, a young bear stumbles upon something he has never seen before in the forest. As time passes, he teaches himself how to play the strange instrument, and eventually, the beautiful sounds are heard by a father and child who are picnicking in the woods.

The bear goes with them on an incredible journey to New York, where his piano playing makes him a huge star. He has fame, fortune, and all the music in the world, but he misses the friends and family he has left behind.

Celebrate 10 years of a modern classic with this exclusive anniversary edition that includes a letter from the author, development sketches, and a poster to pull out and keep.
