Rupert Bear is one of the most beloved and enduring characters in children’s literature. The little bear has had many illustrators over the past hundred years, but Alfred Bestall is widely recognised as the best.

This very special collection contains eight of Alfred Bestall’s most celebrated Rupert stories, including ‘Rupert and Raggety’ and ‘Rupert and Jack Frost’. It also includes several lavish endpapers, a selection of unpublished sketches, an introduction by Bestall’s goddaughter and a foreword by Gyles Brandreth.

Rupert’s world is truly timeless and this beautiful collection will delight readers of all generations.
