Mr Avant - Gardeo Bear

This tale is by an Aussie author and illustrator, Natalie Duffy-Woodley, from the land down under. She is also the author and illustrator for the Aussie pixie tale, Groonge and Daisy, Moon Dreaming. “Oh, Mr. Avant-Gardeo Bear.” “Oh, I do declare!” What did thine prepare, when the cupboard was bare? He searched the manor and found a half-eaten banger that nearly broke his teeth! He settled instead for cockroaches and soap with scum and brine toast garnished with an elegant flea!
