Description

Bear’s cave fills with animal friends as he sleeps in this classic book from New York Times bestselling team of Karma Wilson and Jane Chapman.

In a cave in the woods,
in his deep, dark lair,
through the long, cold winter
sleeps a great brown bear.

One at a time, a whole host of different animals and birds find their way out of the cold and into Bear’s cave to warm up. But even after the tea has been brewed and the corn has been popped, Bear just snores on!

See what happens when he after all wakes up and finds his cave full of uninvited guests—all of them having a party without him!
On a cold windy night, an itty-bitty mouse “pitter-pat, tip-toe, creep-crawls” into a sleeping bear’s cozy lair, on the lookout for relief from the bitter winter weather. Soon he is joined by a veritable menagerie of woodland animals, and the party begins. Popping corn, brewing tea, tweeting, and chatting, the critters enjoy themselves thoroughly even as the bear slumbers through it all. Until, that may be, an errant pepper flake from the simmering stew wakes him up with a giant sneeze. As the bear goes from ferocious snarls and rumbles to pitiful whimpers, his uninvited guests realize what the problem is.

You’ve snuck in my lair
and you’ve all had a good time!
But me? I used to be sleeping
and…
I have had none!

Not to worry. Mouse knows just what to do.

First-time writer Karma Wilson and artist Jane Chapman (illustrator of Phyllis Root’s One Duck Stuck) have created a charming little tale of sharing and caring with the intention to have readers of every age cheering at the humorous finale. (Ages 3 to 7) –Emilie Coulter
