Brenda is very attached to her bear Pete and very upset when she leaves him on the bus and loses him. Then after a couple of days, something very strange happens - she starts to receive postcards from Pete, from all over the world! From London, Paris, Venice, Moscow, Nairobi, Cairo, Tangier, Beijing, the Amazon jungle, the Grand Canyon - Pete visits them all, sending cards, on each of which he says how much he is missing Brenda. Then one day there is no card, but a small brown parcel - and inside is Pete! Dyan Sheldon's other titles include "The Whales' Song" (Winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal),"I Forgot" "Skywatching", "A Night to Remember", "Ride on, Sister Vincent", "Tall, Thin and Blonde", "Harry and Chicken", "Harry the Explorer" and "Harry's Holiday". Tanya Hurt-Newton was highly commended for the 1991 Macmillan Book Prize.
