Jasper Robinson-Woods is not okay - his name is too long, his mum has an annoying boyfriend, he never sees his dad, and he can''t sleep because of a terrifying nightmare. Oh, and to top it off, his goldfish is dying.
Jasper is overwhelmed with bad thoughts. Are they a sign of disaster to come? The only place he feels safe is in the tree in his front yard.
But then the unimaginable happens: his nightmare comes to life and everything spirals out of control. Jasper decides it''s finally time to face his nightmare.
Bear is a moving, often laugh-out-loud funny story showing that even when you hit rock bottom, you never know what, or who, is around the corner.
