A heart-warming picture book about a charming bear duo on an adventure to find a best friend. Black Bear is feeling lonely, so he decides to look for a friend. Luckily, he meets Brown Bear, who is in the same situation!

The bears decide to search for a friend together. They search everywhere, but their elusive friend is nowhere to be found. Or have they been right there all along?

With stunning artwork and heart-warming text, this is a beautiful picture book from the Kate Greenaway Medal-shortlisted Petr Horacek.

'We've lost our hearts a little bit to this book. What a beautiful, bear-filled delight. [...] This is such a heart-warming story, full of the most gorgeous illustrations (the bears faces are just adorable) of butterflies and bears, nature and woodland, which will have you desperate to go outside on a springtime walk with your young ones. It's a captivating and eye-catching read, brimming with bears, friends and cheeky fun.' - Mini Travellers

'Gorgeously illustrated in rich, vivid colour with the most endearing pair of lonely bears, who heartwarmingly discover the true meaning of friendship' - UKLA
