Douglas' friends have lots of ideas about how to put things right but it is left to the little bear to work out for himself the best thing to do.

Taylor creates a magnificent structure from building blocks and is devastated when it is destroyed by a passing flock of birds. We work closely with publishers and authors to ensure that we offer the best books on the market for your child.

They particularly like the descriptions that accompany the hugs, 'Daisy chain hug', 'unrequited hug' and I shan't spoil any of the others . He’s the bear that nobody wants to hug (apart from everyone who reads the book) and who ruins his wooly hat. In the other books they’ve modeled different hugs and hats, and in Hugless Douglas and the Big Sleep they model the different things you would take for a sleepover. One of his most popular picture books The Tale of Jack Frost became an award-winning BBC1 animation, shown on Christmas Day.

He previously worked as a photographer and as an animation artist for films including the much-loved Father Christmas, based on the book by Raymond Briggs. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Especially created for World Book Day 2014 and starring the much-loved Hugless Douglas, this charming story follows Douglas and his friends through a fun-filled day.One thing I particularly love about David Melling’s illustrations is that he portrays emotion so well in both the facial expressions and body language of his characters.

Roadworks is a beautiful book, from the asphalt-patterned end papers to the bold illustrations and the big, blocky words that stand out on the page. I think that this is a brilliant technique for getting early readers to begin reading with expression. Fancy Dress Farmyard is great for preschoolers because it’s a game of peekaboo and the illustrations are bright, bold and funny.I hope there are many more Hugless Douglas books planned because I can’t get enough of this loveable bear.
