Everyone’s favourite purple bear is back and bolder than ever in this laugh-out-loud page turner from Ben Bailey Smith and Sav Akyuz.
With funny word play and bold imagery, actor Ben Bailey Smith and artist Sav Akyuz have created a Bear to remember. If there’s one thing Bear knows, it’s how to move. And when the music starts up, Bear just can’t help grooving to the beat – spinning round, belly dancing and even doing the foxtrot.
An infectiously rhythmic and hilarious sequel to I Am Bear.
Just Annoying is the second book in this hilarious series of stories about the world’s most annoying practical joker – from the creators of the bestselling Treehouse series, Andy Griffiths and Terry Denton.

Hi! I’m Jeanie – 7 3/4 years old, and a BIG fan of badges.
BAD NANA is one of my three grandmas (yes, three). Of course, “Bad Nana” isn’t actually her actual name – but it’s what everyone has been calling her for MILLIONS of years. If I had MY way, I would call her “Fun Nana”, because she is actually brilliant. Yes, she’s a bit NAUGHTY sometimes, but in an EXCELLENT way.
