Bookroo's summary

Bear wants to express gratitude with a grand feast, but there's a snag—his cupboards are empty. As friends arrive with delicious dishes, Bear faces a dilemma. Can he still show his thanks? Discover how friendship and generosity turn an empty pantry into a heartwarming celebration.

From the publisher

In this playful and charmingly illustrated Classic Board Book, Bear has so much to give thanks for! What better way for Bear to say thanks than over a nice, big dinner? Bear decides to throw a feast! One by one, Bear’s friends show up with different platters of delicious food to share. There’s just one problem: Bear’s cupboards are bare! What is he to do?
