Children in Need is coming up on 14 November, and this year it’s time to celebrate 40 years of Pudsey Bear!

To mark the very special occasion children’s author Tom Fletcher is writing a book called Pudsey And The Thread Of Hope to help raise more money for the charity.

The story follows a young boy called Jai who is grieving his father.

Pudsey goes with Jai on a journey of healing, meeting other children who are connected by a golden thread of kindness.
