It’s the middle of winter, and deep in a snowy forest, all the animals are fast asleep—except for one. A curious little bear cub wakes up early from his winter nap and decides he wants to play in the snow.

But no one else is awake! The badger is snoring, the hedgehog is dreaming, and the forest is quiet. Cold, hungry, and alone, the little bear wanders through the snow—until a friendly rabbit shows him the true reason bears sleep through the winter.

This heartwarming tale is full of gentle humor, forest magic, and friendship, perfect for bedtime or classroom story time.
