Little Bartholomew bear wants to play, but George is busy with his housework. Ba waits patiently, and when George is finally done, Ba suggests they play "bringing in the laundry" and "sweeping the floor" before they head outside for a picnic. Ba behaves like the toddlers for whom the book is designed, and the large, clear illustrations convey the affection between adult and baby bear.
