Little Bear's Grandad ISBN: 9781854306364
Cabban, Vanessa and Gray, Nigel
Published by Little Tiger Press, 2000

Little Bear and his Grandad share a very special relationship. Every Friday Little Bear and his Grandad have tea together and spend time in Grandad's tree house. They climb the ladder rain or shine and talk about Grandad's youth and the countryside they both love. One Friday, Little Bear's mum takes him to see Grandad in hospital, and as Grandad is too tired to tell a story, Little Bear tells him one about their special times together. At the end of the story, Grandad falls into 'the very deepest of deep, deep sleeps'. Mum and Little Bear are very sad, but they climb up to the tree house and talk about Grandad and how much they loved him. Little Bear resolves to be a special grandad one day too. The illustrations are outstanding - very moving and warm. A book to be treasured.
