(3) PS Illustrated by Jane Massey. Fred, a bear cub, thinks an acorn is an egg and decides to hatch it. His friends protest that bears don't hatch eggs. Nothing, however, deters him, until it's time for bed. Mother explains that acorns grow into trees and must be planted. Fred's behavior is very toddlerlike, and the gentle illustrations create a warm environment for him.
