In this backstory to Old Bear and His Cub, Little Cub, who lives under a pile of rocks, is cold and hungry. Old Bear is warm and sated and lives in a comfortable cabin. Both are lonely, and each needs to care for--and be cared for by--someone. Dunrea's characteristic warm-hearted pencil and gouache illustrations bring the bears and the entire forest to life.
