Bookroo's summary

In the little white house, Sam's cough interrupts bedtime. Mrs. Bear tries to soothe him with syrup, but it's too bitter and hard to swallow. As the night grows colder, can Mrs. Bear's tender care and warmth help Sam find comfort and rest? Discover how a mother's love can conquer even the chilliest of nights in this heartwarming tale.

From the publisher

In the little white house, Mrs. Bear is putting Sam to bed, when suddenly – HCK HCK! coughs Sam. Mrs. Bear gets some syrup. But the syrup tastes bad, and there’s too much of it on a too-big spoon, and it’s too hard to swallow. What will make Sam feel better? Acclaimed picture-book creators Amy Hest and Anita Jeram revisit Sam and Mrs. Bear as they share a quiet moment of comfort that is enough to conquer the coldest night.
