Exquisitely gentle water colour picture books about two days in the life of a bear called Willow. Willow is the gentlest bear you'll ever meet. He lives at the foot of the Appleby Downs on Paradise Farm. One day he looks out over the fields and dreams of his cabin by the sea. He invites Little Pink Pig and all the animals of Paradise Farm to go with him on a golden seaside day to treasure. And there is nothing finer than a day spent on the river, with a boat and a picnic and a friend for company.
