Frederick T. Bear, worldwide explorer, is an innovative approach to teaching children (and adults) the geography of the world. Through the adventures and discoveries of the bear, as relayed in his journal,
e-mails, photographs and video coverage, children can learn about the cultures and traditions of the countries which he visits.



This project was initiated by Mary Curtin, teacher in Cloghroe National School, Cloghroe, Co. Cork. His adventure diaries are written by Pat Falvey and Clare O' Leary. Freddy's Everest expedition from Spring
2003 is available in most good bookshops nationwide.
