Very Itchy Bear

SCHOLASTIC AUSTRALIA

Bear is here . . .
and here is Flea
(but Flea’s a little small to see).

This is Flea
about to bite,
but not because he’s impolite.

He’s biting bear
to say, ‘Hello!’,
biting high and biting low.

In The Very Cranky Bear, Bear’s cave was invaded by four playful animals. In The Very Itchy Bear there is just one creature bothering him: a persistent flea. Bear tries to get away but Flea just won’t leave him alone.

When Bear finally gets rid of Flea, he finds that he misses him — and a new friendship is born.

Another instant classic from Nick Bland!
