GIVEAWAY: The Bear Who Stared

GIVEAWAY: The Bear Who Stared

**Giveaway posted 3rd November, enter by 9th November 2016.**

Our GIVEAWAY this week is a picture book about a curious bear who learns an important lesson. The Bear Who Stared by Duncan Beedie is fun, colourful, and even introduces children to manners!

There once was a bear who liked to STARE. Bear doesn’t mean to be rude, he’s just curious . . . but nobody likes being stared at and it soon gets Bear into trouble. The ladybugs find somewhere else to eat, the birds shoo him away, and an annoyed badger bites his nose. Luckily there’s a googly-eyed frog to set Bear straight! He teaches Bear to smile and say “Hello” when looking at people, and Bear is able to make lots of friends. But he still likes to stare at his own reflection!

We have three (3) copies to giveaway.  For your chance to win, post a comment on the GIVEAWAY story which will be on our facebook page from 7.30pm AEDT 3rd November, telling us why you want to win!

The 3 most interesting and original responses by 5pm AEST 9th November will win a copy of The Bear Who Stared thanks to our friends at The Five Mile Press. Please note the competition is open to Australian residents only. The winner will be announced on our facebook page.
