Norton is a small dog with a big penchant for fashion. He prides himself on dressing differently by sourcing unique pieces of clothing. His personal style appears paramount to differentiating between himself and everyone else.
However, along comes the ever-friendly Bear, who has even larger admiration for Norton’s fashion flair. Bear is wowed by Norton’s dedication to appearance and attempts to forge a friendship by copying his dress sense. Norton finds it increasingly difficult to stand out with Bear imitating his every vogue move.
How will Norton reconcile his uniqueness?
In a warming twist, Norton and Bear recognise that personality and friendship run deeper than looks.
Norton and the Bear is a laugh out loud story about the concept of individuality aimed at younger readers.
