By: Jane Hissey

Narrated by: Adjoa Andoh

An enchanting treasury of teddy bear tales from Jane Hissey's beloved BAFTA award-winning Old Bear and Friends series!

This beautifully narrated collection of classic children's stories follows Old Bear, Duck, Rabbit, Little Bear, Bramwell Brown and more on a series of adorable adventures.

Old Bear
Old Bear has been packed away in the attic! How will Bramley and friends work together to reach the far-away attic and find him?

Little Bear's Trousers
Little Bear wakes up one day to find his trousers are missing! Little does he know, they've been on quite the adventure without him-but can Little Bear figure out where they've gone, and who has them?

Little Bear Lost
The toys decide to play a game of hide and seek! But when everyone comes out of their hiding spots, they realise they've lost Little Bear! Where has he gone, and can the toys work together to find him?

Jolly Tall
Rabbit discovers a big box with a mysterious new visitor inside... could this be who Bramwell Brown has been knitting that long, long red scarf for?

Splash
Old Bear and the toys are having a day at the seaside when the tide comes in and takes Little Bear's ball! When he goes after it in just a little bucket, who will save him from watery trouble and help him find his ball again?

Ruff
The toys have a new visitor, a dog named Ruff who's never had a birthday! They decide to celebrate all of his birthdays in one week. Together they'll open presents, blow out birthday candles, play 'pass the parcel', and more with their new friend!

Jolly Snow
Jolly Tall has never seen snow, so the toys set out to find some. Could it be the teeny tiny snow in the snow globe? The flour for Bramwell Brown's biscuits? The bubbles in the bubble bath? Or something else...
