THE BEAR WHO DIDN’T KNOW ANYMORE

“L’ours qui ne savait plus… ” | Nancy Guilbert & Nicolas Gouny | Frimousse, France | 32pp | 24.5 x 20 cm

Bear wakes up this morning and steps out of his lair. Hmm! It smells like autumn… He knows he’s got to do something but impossible to remember what. His neighbours try to help. Could it be a dam for the fishes? attempts the beaver. A game of hide and seek? Asks the moose. A picnic? Suggests the pika. No, no, no, that isn’t it! Meanwhile, above his head, a bird is flying around, restless. “Tweedle-dee, tweedle-dee”. Too much noise, Bear cannot concentrate. But could he actually be the one knowing what the others don’t?
