More feedback!

More feedback from people who have read The Mayor's Bear - or who had it read to them! 

"My daughters were so pleased to be some of the first to hear Jon's wonderful book. Aged 10, 8 and 5 years old they really identified with the bear and were captivated as they listened to Jon tell them the beautiful story. Highly recommended."


"My daughter and I absolutely loved this delightful children's story following the adventures of a bear, a mayor and a lost chain. We fell in love with Strumbold, the magimistical Teddy bear full of sage advice and Roxie, the feisty mayor with a tricky problem. There are some lovely themes and messages in the book, of resilience, courage and hope and some beautiful 'poems' written by Roxie's son that we could all do with in our lives."


"This book is more than just a story; it's a bonding experience that has sparked many discussions between my daughter and me about community and the magic of everyday heroes. We can’t wait to follow Roxie and Strumbold on more adventures, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a heartwarming, educational story to share with their children."


"Great"


"Charming, made me smile all the way through and I wasn't expecting that"
