Description
A fantastically funny story about a hungry bear who awakes from his hibernation with a bad case of the grumps.
Horace is usually a happy, easy-going bear. But one spring, he wakes from his long sleep in a very bad mood - he's hangry! When the other animals in the forest generously share their food, he gobbles it all up and they then find themselves with growling bellies. Horace's grumpiness soon starts to spread . . . until the whole forest is squabbling!
Can a wise baby squirrel help Horace to see the chaos he's caused?
With bright and vibrant artwork, this is a funny story about snacks, sharing and learning to think of others.
