On Halloween, the honeybee-costumed Bear (Bear's Merry Book of Hidden Things) searches for his favorite treat in a corn maze, pumpkin patch, haunted library, and more. He discovers candy corn, spider rings, and other Halloween-themed treasures, but there's no honeycomb to be found--until he arrives home. (Surprise!)
