Bookroo's summary
As winter approaches, Bear is eager to share a story, but his friends—Mouse, Duck, and Toad—are preoccupied with their own preparations. Will Bear find someone to listen before the cold sets in? This heartwarming tale explores friendship and patience as Bear helps his friends, hoping for a moment to tell his tale. Will anyone be awake to hear it?
From the publisher
It was almost winter and Bear was getting sleepy. But first, Bear had a story to tell… Bear found his friend Mouse, but Mouse was busy gathering seeds and didn’t have time to listen to a story. Then Bear saw his friend Duck, but Duck was getting ready to fly south. What about his friend Toad? He was busy looking for a warm place to sleep. By the time Bear was through helping his friends get ready for winter, would anyone still be awake to hear his story?
