A doughnut feast grows into a counting-and-sharing tale

LouAnn has baked doughnuts for her own winter preparations, but each woodland visitor changes the size of the feast. As more friends arrive, she keeps making batches and dividing them equally—while overlooking her own share. The growing guest list gives the story a clear counting thread, alongside its picture-book portrait of welcome and generosity. Winter’s approach adds a practical hinge to the problem: LouAnn’s kitchen is running low just as she has yet to eat. Bears, a woodchuck, a raccoon, an opossum, a skunk, and chipmunks make the gathering a lively woodland ensemble.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children who enjoy animal picture books and woodland settings
  • Families seeking a story that brings counting into a sharing situation
  • Readers interested in stories about friendship and generosity

Book overview

A generous but increasingly put-upon bear makes batch after batch of doughnuts for her woodland friends without saving any for herself in this delightful debut picture book about counting, sharing, and being a good friend.

LouAnn (a bear) is making a doughnut feast in preparation for her long winter's nap. But just before she takes the first bite, DING DONG! Her friend Woodrow (a woodchuck) drops by. LouAnn is happy to share her doughnuts, but as soon as she and Woodrow sit down to eat, DING DING! Clyde (a raccoon) is at the door. One by one, LouAnn's friends come over--Topsy (an opossum) and then Moufette (a skunk) and then Chip and Chomp (chipmunks)--until it's one big party. Louann welcomes her surprise guests and makes batch after batch of doughnuts, always dividing them equally among her friends. But she makes one BIG miscalculation. Soon LouAnn's kitchen is bare, winter is near, and she's had nothing to eat at all!
