After Bruno the bear saves Henry's beehive, the two become friends. In two other episodic, easy-to-read chapters, Henry helps Bruno look for a place to live, and on a camping trip, Bruno helps Henry hide food from hungry bears. This isn't great literature, but kids will enjoy staying one step ahead of each tale, and the flat illustrations, boasting exaggerated proportions, will amuse.
