Description
A bear's journey through the wintry woods leads to new friends and a magical discovery in this glimmering picture book that captures the joy and spirit of Christmas.
In the dark of winter, deep in the woods, a lone bear is awakened from his winter sleep by a soft and mysterious sound. Under the stars, the bear finds his way step by step through the snowy forest, making friends along his route.
Then the bear finds a place in the woods that glows magically with something he and his friends could never have imagined-their first Christmas.
