The first time Sarah saw Big Bear was on a school outing. He looked just like Mr T, her teddy, only much, much bigger. Big Bear looked sad. So Sarah started talking to him. \u201cDon\u2019t be sad,\u201d she said softly. \u201cI\u2019m here.\u201d She told him he was not alone. She told him not to worry and she told him secrets that nobody else knew.
\nWhen Sarah went home that afternoon, there were suitcases and boxes in the hallway. She heard angry voices. Then Daddy drove away in his car.
\n\u201cDon\u2019t worry, darling,\u201d Mum said. \u201cYou and I are going to be just fine.\u201d
\nThat night Sarah couldn\u2019t sleep. What happened next? Someone climbed through her window! \u201cDon\u2019t be sad,\u201d said a soft voice. \u201cI\u2019m here.\u201d
\nThere was Big Bear! Soon they were having loads of adventures together!
\nBig Bear is a proudly South African book. It is a sensitive, moving story about a child\u2019s experience of divorce and loss, as well as the wonderful healing power of the imagination and stories.<\/p>\n
