In a cave in the woods, all winter long, Bear sleeps in his cozy lair. Surprise guests stop by to warm up, brew tea and pop corn while Bear snores on. When the smells and the fun finally disturb his slumber, Bear wakes up to find his den full of celebrating critters. Cheerful rhymes and illustrations will charm children as they wait for Bear's BIG reaction. Playfully narrated by the author, Karma Wilson, with music by John Jennings.
