| Summary |
When bedtime comes Little Bear is afraid of the dark, until Big Bear brings him lights and love. As Big Bear sits by the cozy fire trying to read, Little Bear, frightened of ̀̀the dark all around us,'' cannot fall asleep. Sympathetic Big Bear lights lanterns in several sizes, attempting to banish the dark from the corners of their cave, but Little Bear wants more. Finally, when he is taken outside, cuddled close, and shown a full moon and twinkling stars, sleep comes instantly. |
