Chaucer, a bear cub, decides not to hibernate so he can discover the joys of wintertime. Glimpses of his parents reveal that they, too, have skipped hibernation to keep an eye on the cub. The story, while not particularly original, is full of lively illustrations showing Chaucer and his animal friends. This paper-over-board edition is notable for its bargain price.
