Sleepy Bear's Christmas

(4) K-3 Translated by J. Alison James. Illustrated by Cristina Kadmon. After Baby Bear finds out about the traditions of Christmas from the forest animals, he is crushed to learn that bears sleep through it. While Baby Bear is hibernating, his animal friends surprise him by waking him for a Yuletide visit--a too-easy solution suggesting that interfering with nature is no big deal. The illustrations feature realistically proportioned animals in seasonal activities.
