Three Chubby Bears

About the Book

Three Chubby Bears: Bored? is a lighthearted, whimsical story about three bored bears sweating in the sun, with (seemingly) nothing to do. Along comes a butterfly, flitting past the nose of one bear; they all chase the butterfly down the hill, trying to catch it in a butterfly net. The butterfly leads them to a lake where they swim and play the day away. Tired but happy, they hike back up the hill and take a snooze. Was their day boring? Ask these bears, who saw the adventure . . . and chased it! Actual photos and black bear facts are also included to teach children (and parents) more about these breathtaking creatures. And don’t miss an opportunity to adopt a bear!
