With a deaf central character, who wears cochlear implants, The Bear Buddies learning adventure stories were originally conceived to support deaf children learning to listen and speak but are equally suited to all young children who need a little extra language practice. Focused on the transitional period when their world expands beyond the home to a school environment and other social settings, these charming, simple stories about a group of young friends navigating familiar childhood scenarios help children to learn and practice early social language, playground etiquette, self-advocacy and other skills that they will need in order to thrive at school, in the playground and on playdates in each other’s houses. Many of the books allude to specific challenges faced by deaf children but most of all, the books focus on building, repeating and practicing basic language and interpersonal skills needed by all children during this pivotal transition in their lives - the move from home to a school and wider social interaction. Key themes of all the books include the importance of inclusivity, acceptance, diversity, kindness and friendships.
