Bear's Lost Glasses - Leo Timmers

Bear can’t find his glasses anywhere. He’s pretty sure he must’ve left them at Giraffe’s place.

So off he goes—and on the way, he spots all sorts of animals he didn’t notice before: an elephant, a crocodile, a flamingo, a deer. And wait a second… who’s that long, spotty “snake” lounging in Giraffe’s deckchair?

Luckily, patient Giraffe helps Bear find his glasses—right where they always seem to end up: sitting on top of his head! With his glasses back, Bear excitedly takes Giraffe to meet all the amazing animals he discovered on his little journey.

Leo Timmers fills every page with expressive, humorous details—from the way Giraffe raises his eyebrows in quiet doubt to the innocent charm of Bear’s bumbling search.

In this clever twist on a classic mix-up, Timmers reminds us how a new perspective can open our eyes to a world of wonder.
