Summary

A magical adventure about a girl, a bear and some very special shoes, perfect for listening to at home, in the car, at bedtime – or any time at all!

When Josephine leaves the shoe shop after buying some new running shoes, she hears an unusual sound – Click-click! Click-click! A bear with a backpack is following her! Luckily for Josephine, her new shoes are anything but ordinary – these are magic shoes. But can they help her escape the bear when there's a mountain, a bog and even a lake in her way?

The Girl, the Bear and the Magic Shoes is an exciting adventure from the stellar partnership of Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks, creators of What the Ladybird Heard. Full of action and imagination, and with a delightfully unexpected ending, this audiobook edition features an exciting reading of the story by Noma Dumezweni.

Enjoy more stories from Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks: The Singing Mermaid, Sugarlump and the Unicorn, Sharing a Shell and What the Ladybird Heard.
