It only contains one line of text per page and has more illustrations to colour in.

The story Brown Bear’s Big Day Out is about a bear that lives in a zoo who wants to go to the funfair and to do this he has to escape and therefore has to disguise himself as a person to do so. In the story he becomes a hero until his mask falls off and then everyone is afraid of him. I try in the story to show that we have to look at people more in depth and that what they look like is secondary to what the real person is behind the mask of first impressions. We have become a society obsessed with looks and yet real characteristics are anything but represented by this. In a world where we appear to be increasingly afraid of those we don’t know, we, especially younger people need to be able to socialise and be communicative with each other. In this extract a young girl is carried away by the wind because she is holding a large balloon.
The book contains illustrations that are repeated at the back of the printed book so that younger children can colour them in.
Blank cards of the coloured bear image and a pdf of the story are available from out website, https://www.junagarhmedia.co.uk/ .
So here’s the extract.
Basil stepped off and this time he was a very, very wobbly bear, so much so he just had to sit down.
He sat and watched as the next group of people got on the big dipper. It was getting windy. Suddenly a gust of wind blew across the funfair and Basil turned when he heard a small scream. A very small girl with a very large balloon had been picked up and was being carried away by the wind.
“Help, help me,” the little girl cried as she and the balloon were carried higher and higher.
The people looked on not knowing what to do. The wind blew hard and the little girl and the balloon became stuck, high up underneath the big dipper.
“Help, help!” shouted the little girl.
Everyone stood still not moving, just staring with worried faces, all except Basil.
