Overview

Bear Foot is a fun, rhyming story about Humphrey, a curious bear cub who finds a pair of shiny trainers in the woods. Thrilled by how comfy they feel, he skips home, excited to show them off to his bear cub pals. However, when running, hopping and skipping suddenly become painful, Humphrey realises the shoes are not what they seemed. With a lighthearted message about trusting what's natural, this story shows how Humphrey discovers the joy of feeling the earth beneath his paws again. Perfect for little ones, Bear Foot is a playful reminder that sometimes simple is best. This charming story has been featured as part of Vivobarefoot's children's footwear launch in Canada and is proud to count Vivobarefoot ambassadors Stephen and David Flynn of The Happy Pear among its fans. Celebrating the joy of natural movement and the importance of embracing what is simple and true, Bear Foot holds a Barefoot Runners Society stomp of approval.

...Amazing intro to the importance of going barefoot...I like the metaphor of a bear wearing padded shoes being unnatural, like how humans wearing padded shoes are also unnatural. I read this to my son and he liked it and thought that the bear with shoes was silly. This was an easy way to talk to him about the importance of natural movement and barefoot and minimalist shoes. - Kira, Booksprout. ... Absolutely adorable story about a bear who discovered he's perfect just the way he is. - Kassandra, GoodReads.
