Meet Gary the bear – he just can’t stop chatting! A laugh-out-loud-funny story about friendship and understanding.
Gary the bear is a chatterbox, but when nobody wants to listen he sets sail in search of new friends.
Soon Gary arrives on an island full of birds . . . the problem is they don’t understand a word of Bear! Gary has to learn that words are not the only way to communicate and make new friends.
This sunny and bright picture book is bursting with energy and humour.
From the illustrator of Lucie Goose, shortlisted for the Evening Standard Oscar’s First Book Prize.

This is one of my all time favourite books. I love it because Gary makes friends and has a party. The funniest bit is at the end when the dog arrives and they need to learn to speak dog! I also love the illustrations and all the colours.

It's funny and keeps you engaged the whole way through! It teaches us that we can learn to communicate with others even if we dont speak the same language. Definitely recommend.

I like the eyebrow talk
Sergeant Crocodile Custard 05.01.2022
I like this book because the bear uses his eyebrows to talk to the birds and teaches the birds the eyebrows talking code. The book is also funny.

I liked when the bear couldn't stop chatting and when he found an island and found loads of birds to talk too using his eyebrows.

I loved the bright colours of the illustrations. I really liked how they found a way to understand each other by communicating using Gary's eyebrows I would recommend to children that are shy as it might show them how to use something else to communicate
