connection and belonging, beautifully brought to life by prolific picture book author-illustrator Britta Teckentrup.
Little Bear lives happily in his cozy cave deep in the woods. He loves picking berries during the day, listening to the birds sing under his favorite tree in the evening, and curling up comfily on his soft leaves to sleep each night.
But when Bear wakes up one morning to find his beloved forest ablaze, he must make a quick escape, away from his cozy cave, friendly faces and the comforts he knows.
He walks and walks in search of somewhere new to call home, but finds he's not welcome in the places that look most familiar to him.
Feeling hopeless and alone, Little Bear must journey even further into the unknown. And only in the most unfamiliar of places, does the kindness of new animal friends lead Little Bear to discover the true meaning of home . . .
Brought to life by award-winning author-illustrator Britta Teckentrup, this is a heartwarming story of connection, friendship, and belonging.
