Memories of Bradley the New Forest Bear

The first book in the charming Bradley the New Forest Bear seven part book series was published in July 2004. The series went on to follow Bradley's many fun adventures around Milford on Sea and nearby.

Listen to Christine telling a Bradley Bear story, by clicking the image below:


You can share all of the stories and memories you may have of these books, their fabulous storylines, and Christine's original hand painted illustrations.

Christine still has and cherishes the original Bradley, who was hand-made by LJ Bears in Lymington.

It would be wonderful for Christine to see all the love for the stories she created, and to also hear about the joy they once, and hopefully still do, bring to children.
