Simon and the Purple Teddy Bear

Simon loves muddy puddles, moon songs and taking Plum, his much-loved teddy bear, everywhere. But when Plum disappears from the blanket castle, Simon and Mum search for clues—and a familiar game turns into an adventure just beyond the front door.

There are purple-fluff clues in the garden, a little bird needing shelter and discoveries waiting by the pond. Simon and Plum explore the attic, brave a windy day, look for the moon and meet a cloud that needs help. When Simon faces a moment that feels too big, holding Plum helps him find his courage. With each new discovery, Simon must decide what to do next—and keep his beloved bear close through it all.

A gentle, imaginative bedtime adventure for early readers aged 5–8, filled with cosy comforts, curious garden discoveries and the reassuring warmth of a child’s bond with a favourite teddy. Enjoy it together at bedtime or share it with a young reader ready to explore a story of their own.
