Bernie is a dog with a very special talent – he can balance absolutely anything!

One day Bernie gets a very unusual request from a furry friend – can Bernie balance this little dog, too? Soon, dogs from all over the park are hurrying up with a woof and a bark to join in Bernie’s brilliant balancing act! But don’t worry, Bernie would NEVER let them all fall . . .

A playful, bouncing read-aloud story, full of dogs of all shapes and sizes, from the creator of the Everybunny series!

Ellie Sandall

Ellie loved drawing from an early age and has a passion for picture books (she keeps her collection in a huge wardrobe in her studio!) After competing a degree in Graphic Design at Bath Spa University, she became interested in drawing and writing specifically for children, and went on to achieve a Master’s degree in Children’s Book Illustration at Cambridge School of Art. As a child, her favourite picture book was The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and she still loves the work of Eric Carle. In her spare time Ellie loves to get stuck into some DIY or go out in her kayak, and she dreams of one day owning her very own sausage dog.
