learned something new

The little bear in the story has just awokefrom his hibernation. He goes out of the woods in search of some food. He finds himself at a home where there is a Purim celebration going on. The people see the bear and think that he must be just a child dressed up for the parade. They invite him in the house for a feast. After eating so much food the bear is ready for a nap. The family tries to wake him so he can take part in the play. He gives a loud growl and they find out he is a real bear! What did you like or not like about the book? I had never heard of Purim before. The note in the back explained the holiday well.
