  Four stories about a boy and his special friend, a huge magical bear Like many young children, Anthony has a teddy bear. But a teddy can't help him when the big kids are being horrible, and telling him he's too little to play with them. So Anthony goes to his blackboard and chalks a huge bear, who then magically comes to life. Now everyone wants to play with Anthony - and no big kid dares to try and bully him. Blackboard Bear is a wonderful ally and companion, although he can be a bit of a liability at times - such as when he goes out at night and raids the neighbours' blueberries, goldfish and honey! Told entirely through dialogue, these four stories are designed to appeal to a small child's imagination. Martha Alexander is also the author of You're a Genius, Blackboard Bear , 'A', You're Adorable , Good Night, Lily , Where's Billy? , Billy and Lily and Billy's Boot .
