Buster is having a 20th birthday ball

THERE are some special celebrations taking place at Buster Books today as the children’s publisher marks its milestone 20th birthday. The children’s imprint of independent publisher Michael O’Mara Books, Buster loves to create books for curious and creative children and its exciting list includes dozens of great titles, under Buster Reference, from history to astrology to animal facts

The aim is to spark young imaginations and encourage exploration, and they have dozens of brilliant activity books to satisfy the keenest of puzzle masters, budding artists and the deepest of thinkers. But, above all, they want their books to be enjoyed.

With superb art and craft, activity and puzzle sections, including the famous search-and-find series Where’s The…?, as well as early years fiction, picture books and sticker books, why not join in the birthday fun and take a look for a book that is just perfect for your youngsters? And as a double celebration, Buster Books today publish Does a Bear Poo in the Woods? a hilarious rhyming picture book romp from the top team of author Jonny Leighton and illustrator Mike Byrne. In a brilliant story aimed at little ones from the age of three, Leighton and Byrne work their magic on the agonising dilemma of a shy bear who needs a poo but can’t avoid the peering eyes of his fellow forest dwellers.

When he feels the urge to go, there’s only one thing on Barry the bear’s mind… finding a private place where he can poo in peace. But a whole host of woodland animals – who don’t care where they poo – just won’t leave Barry alone!

Does a Bear Poo in the Woods? provides an answer to the age-old question in this funny, laugh-along picture book which is guaranteed to have little ones grinning and giggling from first page to last.

Brought to life by Leighton’s perfectly poo-filled rhyming text and Byrne’s rich, textured and firmly tongue-in-cheek illustrations, Barry’s woodland quest is destined to be a favourite with all the family!

(Buster Books, paperback, £6.99)
