Will You Be My Friend? Hardback Book – A New Story from the Guess How Much I Love You Series

Picture Book | Age: 3–7 years approx. | Format: Hardback | 32 pages

Product Intro / Summary

From the creators of the beloved classic Guess How Much I Love You, comes Will You Be My Friend? — the first new picture book in over 24 years featuring the cherished Nutbrown Hares. This beautifully illustrated hardback is a tender, adventure-filled tale of curiosity, discovery and the true meaning of friendship.

Product Description

Big Nutbrown Hare is busy, so Little Nutbrown Hare sets off alone to explore the world around him. Along the way, he finds his reflection, races his shadow, and climbs to Cloudy Mountain. There, he meets someone truly special — a snow-white hare named Tipps. And this time, it’s not just a reflection or shadow... it’s a real friend.

With gentle storytelling by Sam McBratney and Anita Jeram’s timeless watercolour illustrations, Will You Be My Friend? is a heartwarming addition to any child's bookshelf. It beautifully explores the themes of independence, play, and friendship with the same emotional resonance as the original.

SHIPPING + RETURNS


THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS

This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.

SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.

Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.

At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.

We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!


RETURNS

You have 14 days to return items.

Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!

🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY
:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.

Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!

PAYMENT

Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay

SECURE AS HOUSES

We Have Lots More Like This.........

Hello, we are Sostter....

Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?

We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect. Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience.

Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently. Explore our British makers, discover sustainable brands, browse women-led businesses, find the perfect gift for her, or simply wander through our new arrivals and see what finds you.

This is just the beginning. But enough about us — read all about us, or step inside and see what catches your imagination.

A Curated Marketplace for Independent Ethical Brands

Discover our world of independent brands, conscious design, and purposeful creativity — all in one place.

Sostter is more than a marketplace. We're here to inspire a more thoughtful way to shop — one that celebrates the makers, the dreamers, and the independent brands doing things properly. Every brand on Sostter has been individually vetted for its originality, quality, and values. From sustainable fashion and ethical homeware to handmade jewellery and design-led gifts — all brought together in one considered space. Browse by location, by purpose, or simply wander and see what finds you. Want to sell with us? We'd love to hear from you.
