Children and parents alike will delight in the release of 'My Magical Bearded Friend', an inspired new picture book that invites readers to discover whether the titular character is actually real, or just a trick of the eye...
The magical bearded friend is a mysterious and dapper figure, with his "cane of pure walnut, and his hat as tall as a tree.' Narrated by a little bird, passers by sometimes catch a hint of cologne, or the melodious timbre of his voice, but when they turn - poof! He's disappeared.

My Magical Bearded Friend is a mysterious character who gradually appears when the sun starts to go down and disappears when the sun reappears in the morning. The reader and listener are asked to question whether My Magical Bearded Friend is a real person or a trick of the eye. Is he tall or is he the shadow of the buildings and towers around the area at dusk? Can you smell his perfume or is it the scent of the flowers wafting on the breeze? Is he colourful and sparkling, or is he simply the reflection of the rising sun? You decide! Parents and children alike will love to read about My Magical Bearded Friend again and again.
