Synopsis

One by one, 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 finally wakes up and finds his cave full of uninvited guests—all of them having a party without him! Now in a special limited paper-over-board edition!

Book Magazine

Newcomer Karma Wilson has succeeded in the surprisingly difficult task of writing a children's book effectively in rhyme. For her tale about a sleeping bear, she hones short verses that dance the reader along, only slowing the pace to repeat the phrase, "But the bear snores on." As the bear sleeps, smaller animals take refuge in his lair from a snowstorm and start partying. But what will happen when the bear wakes up? Large acrylic paintings create a cast of personable animals, including the bear, who turns out to be a hospitable host. <%END%>
