Otto is a book bear. His home is his own book and nothing makes him happier than when people read and share his story. But Otto also has a secret! When no one is around, Otto leaves his book and has adventures exploring the house. Then one day, something terrible happens. His people move house, leaving Otto alone without anyone to read is book. Otto sets out on his biggest adventure. He must find a new home, new friends, and new people to read his story. The pictures themselves tell the story eloquently, adding much to the simple clear text. Otto’s character is purely lovable, kind and sharing, and a bit mischievous. This is a wonderful book to share with the whole family, expressing a love of books and reading. Kate Cleminson gives us a lovely story of sharing, joy, of losing and finding again... and, of course, of books! (from Fallen Star Stories blog)
