Bear Is Not Tired

(3) PS When it's time to hibernate, Bear (Room for Bear) frets that his duck family will have fun without him. The text reports on his attempts to fight sleep; the art provides the comedy (e.g., "Bear tried to think of ways to stay awake" shows three ducklings physically keeping Bear's eyes open). Alongside the humor is a subtle message about being true to oneself.
