Bear by David Ezra Stein is about a Bear who is ravenous when he wakes up from his winter sleep. He has one thing on his mind: honey! Alas, it is too soon for honey, so Bear tries hard to be patient.
The world around him is waking up, too, and he soon remembers all the other things he loves. Like warm grass, berries, and rain. He’s almost content, until, one day, he hears a welcome buzzing sound. Finally it is time for Bear to delight in the thing he relishes above all others! And it is as warm, golden, sweet, and good as he remembered.
