Meet Frank and Bert - a fox and bear who love to play games almost as much as they love their friendship! The first book in the hilarious Frank and Bert series from best-selling author-illustrator Chris Naylor-Ballesteros, creator of The Suitcase.



WINNER OF THE NOTTINGHAM CHILDREN'S BOOK AWARD 2023



But Bert says I always find him because he doesn't get enough time to hide properly.
He would really love to win at hide-and-seek, even if it was just once.



Frank and Bert are the best of friends and they LOVE to play hide and seek. But Bert the bear isn't quite as good at hiding as he thinks he is . . . and Frank ALWAYS wins! Every. Single. Time.


But when it's Bert's turn to hide, and Frank has to decide between winning again OR making his friend happy, Frank learns that friendship is always the true winner.


This interactive and entertaining story about friendship is guaranteed to get children giggling!

Praise for The Suitcase:



". . . beautifully illustrated and wise, gentle tale of tolerance and kindness for fellow humans resonates deeply." - Khaled Hosseini, author of The Kite Runner



"A simple, powerful way to introduce the idea of kindness to strangers to young children." - Axel Scheffler, illustrator of The Gruffalo



"Welcome and understanding are at the heart of this children's book by Chris Naylor-Ballesteros." - Laura Padoan, UNHCR, The UN Refugee Agency

Chris is originally from Bradford and studied illustration and graphic design at Bradford College of Art. In 2000 he moved to France where, amongst other things, he was an English teacher before working in newspaper layout and design.
When his children were small he realised he loved the picture books he read to them, sometimes even more than his children did - the Picture Book Bug had truly bitten.
Chris has since written and illustrated several books and is currently thinking about the next one, probably with a cuppa in hand at home near Limoges.
He likes listening to and making music, wandering around the countryside, a bit of running and riding a bike. His favourite season is autumn and his favourite colour is green.
