George isn’t like the other bears: not content with chatting and fishing, he wants more from life. He finds a book under a tree one day and sets out on a quest to find out what it says by learning to read. But who will teach him? All the other bears have no interest in reading and finding out more. The answer comes in a little girl called Clementine, who isn’t scared of the bear. She just wants to teach George what her book says.
Bears Don’t Read Is an enchanting wintry story about friendship and gaining a lifetime love for reading, written and illustrated by Emma Chichester Clark. It’s perfect to curl up with this winter, and you could win a signed copy simply by leaving a comment on this blog post!

What a lovely story! Be proud to like books and reading – keep looking out for others who share your interest in reading, never give up or feel alone and soon you will find a friend to share your book love with 🙂 Brilliant author/illustrator – we love EmmaCC.
My nephew George is learning to read. LOVES Emma’s illustrations already esp Not Last Night but the Night Before. Why? “I love the way she does eyes”. He’d ADORE this.
The illustrations are so beautiful! My daughter (and me!) would absolutely love this book. Good luck to everyone!
I’d love to read this with my Grandchildren.
We love ECC and we have a few people here who would love that book 🙂
I Love Emma Chichester Clarks work!
Looks like an amazing book. Would love to sit and share it with my daughter Poppy. It looks like it would be a favourite for her and the illustrations look amazing x
Looks like a beautiful book. I’m sure my son would love it!
Excellent book, I’m sure my son would love to have his own copy.
Our favourite illustrator. My Blue Kangaroo fan would love to receive this just in time for her 5th birthday so she can tell all her new friends in her new school library!
I’d love to use this for my storytelling sessions around the schools I visit.
I have an empty pawed bear sitting on a sofa in our school library who looks like he needs a copy of this to hold and cuddle up with our smaller borrowers. Also a team of enthusiastic Year 6s who will read it to them and doubtless enjoy it just as much (if not more) than their Reception listeners!
What a gorgeous idea.We would love to read this with our little Ursula bear
Lovely book and illustrations. Great for encouraging a desire to read in the younger children.
The expressions of Emma C-C’s drawings are exquisite. The animals look and speak with just tilts of the head and little glances.
A perfect combination – reading and friendships. What more could anyone ask for from a book?
I would absolutely adore this book – anything by Emma CC is brilliant.
I would love to receive a copy of this book for my daughter who was highly amused at hearing about a bear that wanted to learn to read. 🙂
What a brilliant idea! This will inspire some of our reluctant readers.
When it’s so grey and wet outside this morning, a story like this would be ideal to read to the nursery class! Emma’s books are great favourites at my school.
This looks perfect to read in my library sessions with Reception and KS1 classes!
Looks beautiful. Any book celebrating reading for pleasure is very welcome on my shelves!
