Welcome to Bear Island

Fri, 11 Mar 2022 18:11:59 GMT

Come and join Loman for stories about Bear Island. 


Way up north, where the fog is as thick as cotton candy there's an island with black sand beaches and steep, craggly cliffs. Meet all the bears, who can talk, dance, and laugh just like humans can. There's:


King Kucaroo: the leader of all the bears.

Loy: the strongest bear on the island.

Dish: a clever inventor bear.

Ralph: a mushroom farmer from deep in the woods.

Old Nan: the oldest and wisest bear on the island.

Gem: a young bear who is smart and daring beyond her years.
