Orse at his workbench
Who is Orse?
Orse, the polar bear, lives in a town called Snowville, high up in the Arctic. He is a general handyman for all the folks that live there. A good natured fellow, he has many friends but often ends up in trouble with the Lord Mayor, Sir Stanley Walrus.

Orse is very fond of food; his first story sets him on a quest for some cheese. Surely this is an easy task that won't upset Sir Stanley? Or will it …?

The Books

ORSE, THE MOON AND A PIECE OF SMELLY CHEESE

ORSE, THE MOON AND A SMELLY PIECE OF CHEESE
The Moon is made of cheese, or so Orse has been led to believe. All he has to do now is to get some for himself and have a free supper. Can he succeed or will he end up with an empty plate?

THE SWIMMING RACE
Having won the sack race at the school sports day and feeling very proud with his winner’s medal, Orse now thinks he is an unbeatable champion. He accepts a challenge from a family of seals to a swimming race. But seals can speed through water much faster than polar bears. Orse can’t possibly win ... can he?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ORSE
It's Orse’s birthday and he is looking forward to receiving lots of birthday cards and perhaps a few presents. Unfortunately, it looks like everyone has forgotten his big day. What has gone wrong and how can his friends put things right?

THE TALENT CONTEST
Orse has written a very special song to perform on stage at the Snowville annual talent contest. Unfortunately, he gets his dates mixed up and misses the deadline to submit his entry form. Luckily, Frederick Rat has an idea which might solve the problem but will Orse still get to sing his song, And we want to Play?
