Biscuit Bear

When Horace bakes a biscuit in the shape of a bear, little does he know that his edible treat is going to turn into Biscuit Bear! For in the middle of the night, when all is quiet, that is exactly what happens, and Biscuit Bear decides that it is time he made some friends of his own. So, with flour, sugar and butter he does just that. In fact, he makes a whole circus of friends and the fun begins . . .

Reviews

In this charming tale told from the biscuit's point of view, Mini Grey creates a hugely satisfying night-world where fear can be seen off and a biscuit can change its chances in life

—— Guardian

Enjoyable as much for the witty innocence of the pictures as the barking-mad originality of the prose

—— Independent

Mini Grey, one of the brightest stars on the picture-book scene, seems to be incapable of producing a dull word or picture . . . Grey's text is beautifully matched by her clever visual jokes and inventive changes of perspective

—— Financial Times

Visually scrumptious, a flavoursome mix of wit and skill

—— The Sunday Times

A star turn

—— Observer

A mystery that is as clever and impish as its heroine

—— Publisher's Weekly Starred Review

An absolutely delightful debut

—— Kirkus Reviews Starred Review

A witty confection of highly colourful characters

—— The Horn Book

A delightful pick for sharp readers enamoured of gothic sensibilities and clever prose

—— Shelf Awareness Starred Review

This witty, imaginative entry deserves a prominent space on the MG shelf.
