Wake Up, Baby Bear!

Poor Baby Bear is so exhausted from staying up too late in the fall, that now he can't wake up in the spring. Even his old friends, Moose, Owl, and Hare have no luck waking the tired little bear. A few well-placed pecks from Mother Robin does the trick and Baby Bear finally awakes just in time to do a little babysitting himself. This charming follow-up to Baby Bear's Not Hibernating explores themes of friendship, diversity, working as a team, and parenting; plus it concludes with fun facts and information about black bears.
