Summary: This book tells the story of a family going on a bear hunt. They have to pass through long wavy grass, a deep cold river, thick oozy mud, a big dark forest….. until they reach the cave. They tiptoe into the cave where they are faced with a big bear; they rush back home, through the mud, the forest, the river and so on. On returning to their house, they forget to shut the door, they run downstairs and shut the door just in time before the bear makes his way into the house.
Suitable for students in years: 1-4
