Bookroo's summary

Arlo the bear faces his greatest fear as he and his family leave their cozy winter den for Spring Valley. Unlike his brave sister Eva, Arlo dreads the change. But when a fierce snowstorm separates him from his family in the Great Wood, Arlo must summon courage he never knew he had. Can he overcome his fears and find his way back to his loved ones? This tender tale explores the true meaning of bravery in the face of uncertainty.

From the publisher

From internationally acclaimed picture book creator Steve Small comes a tender story about fear of change and what it means to be brave. It’s time for Arlo the bear and his family to leave their winter den and journey to Spring Valley, but he doesn’t feel ready for the big departure from the home he likes just the way it is. Sometimes Arlo wishes he could be brave like his sister, Eva. But when a snowstorm hits and separates the family as they travel through the Great Wood, Arlo finds that being brave when you’re afraid is the bravest brave of all.
