A winter cave fills with company

While a great brown bear sleeps through the cold season, animals and birds take shelter in his cave. Their small gathering grows into a party, with brewed tea and popped corn, as the bear snores on—until he wakes to discover the unexpected crowd. The story’s simple sequence of arrivals and the contrast between the sleeping bear and the busy cave give its bedtime setting a playful focus on winter shelter and an unplanned gathering.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A fit for young children sharing a bedtime story.
  • For families seeking a picture book set in a wintry woodland.
  • Suitable for children interested in animal characters and a growing group of visitors.

Book overview

A classic story that is now turning ten years old!

In BEAR SNORES ON, Bear is sleeping peacefully through winter in his cave. When a little mouse creeps into the cave and builds a warm little fire, Bear continues to sleep. Hare comes to join Mouse and they snack by the fire...but Bear keeps sleeping. Badger joins the party with honey nuts to share; then come Gopher, Mole, Wren, and Raven, but Bear sleeps straight through the fun. When Bear finally sneezes and awakes, he's not too happy! But after he gnarls, snarls, growls and grumbles, whimpers, moans, and groans, he becomes the perfect host. Only when day breaks, all of his guests fall asleep leaving Bear wide awake. This humorous story with charming illustrations is now available in the Classic Board format perfect for little readers.
