Rabbit and Bear: The Pest in the Nest by Julian Gough is the enchanting second installment in this beloved children's series, where the heartwarming friendship between Rabbit and Bear faces a new and noisy challenge – a pesky woodpecker!
This delightful tale is expertly crafted for young readers who are ready to transition from picture books to engaging narratives. With a perfect blend of humor and heart, Rabbit and Bear: The Pest in the Nest invites children to join the whimsical adventure as Rabbit pleads for peace and quiet, only to be disrupted by Bear's thunderous snoring and the relentless BANG! BANG! BANG! from above.
As Rabbit seeks a solution to restore tranquility, Bear's gentle wisdom encourages Rabbit to see their world from a different perspective – from the trees. Beautifully illustrated by Jim Field, winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, each page bursts with vibrant colors and emotional depth, capturing the essence of friendship and embracing differences.
Praised by The Times as a “perfect animal double-act,” this engaging narrative teaches young readers to navigate life's noisy challenges with grace and humor. Whether children are drawn to witty animal tales or seeking a heartwarming story to share, Rabbit and Bear: The Pest in the Nest is an essential addition to any young reader's collection, promising laughter and valuable life lessons with every turn of the page.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
