Bear doesn't realize the talking flower is really Bird, who fell into it and couldn't get out. Bear forgets to pack all the things for a picnic; Bird loves painting and teaches Bear who is a natural; Bear doesn't want to leave his cozy home to do stuff with Bird.
Four darling stories featuring these 2 sweet friends. I liked that they were sometimes making choices that weren't always the best - great discussion points with the child - "Is it OK to be dishonest to keep from hurting someone's feelings?" - "Is it OK to tell your friend you just want to be alone for a while?" Jarvis' pictures are great. A fun Picture Book / Chapter Book.
