Celebrate the 20th anniversary of this uplifting story about a bear without a smile, from the bestselling creator of Percy the Park Keeper.

This is the story of Albert Le Blanc. (He's from France, so it's ‘Al-bear Le Blonk.)

When Albert Le Blanc arrives at Mr. Jolly's toy shop, the other toys believe he is the saddest bear they have ever seen. But then, Jack-in-a-box has an idea that might put a smile on their new friend's face.

A wonderful and funny story about the importance of friendship - and laughter - from the creator of the internationally popular stories of Percy the Park Keeper.
