AWARD FINALIST - 2025 Wishing Shelf Book Awards (UK)
Recognised in the Preschool Picture Book category of this international award, judged by children - for the enjoyment of children.
A joyful, heart-warming picture book for children aged 3-6 about friendship, bravery and gentle discovery - perfect for bedtime reading, early-learning classrooms and libraries.
Bert loves an adventure! When he discovers a secret book, it leads him into the mysterious Bubbly Forest - a magical world filled with wonder, mystery and a friendly Bubble Monster.
As Bert explores this curious forest, something magical floats through the pages... bubbles. Big and small, shiny and colourful, they drift through the air, quietly inviting Bert (and the reader) to look a little closer and explore further.
A magic yellow bubble is hidden throughout the illustrations, adding a gentle layer of discovery and inviting children to share Bert's adventure as it unfolds.
In Bert's Adventure in Bubbly Forest, children join Bert on a heart-warming journey as he learns to face his fears, embrace friendship and discover the joy of keeping a "bubbly" spirit, even in the face of the unknown.
This beautifully illustrated picture book celebrates bravery, curiosity, friendship and the power of imagination.
Perfect for:
- Children who love magical adventures and friendly monsters
- Ages 3-6 exploring emotions, curiosity and friendship
- Fans of classic and contemporary picture books with imaginative storytelling and gentle themes
- Parents, teachers and librarians seeking joyful, engaging read-aloud stories for storytime or bedtime
