We’re going on a bear hunt. We’re going to catch a big one. Will you come too? For a quarter of a century, readers have been swishy-swashying and splash-sploshing through this award-winning classic. Follow household favourite and former Children’s Laureate Michael Rosen and wade through the grass, splash through the river and squelch through the mud in search of a bear. What a surprise awaits us in the cave on the other side of the dark forest!

This event will be livestreamed from Hay Festival.
