When a friendly red bug chooses to settle in Bear's fur, the uncomfortable host desperately tries to dislodge the guest. In the end, a wise owl recommends new lodgings: a sloth who's looking for a friend. This British import's rhyming text doesn't always scan, but the appealing paintings successfully reduce both animals and setting down to more simplified shapes, à la Jon Klassen.
