Little Bear loves his little boat. He rows it around the lake. He fishes from it. He lies and dreams in it. But then something strange happens. Little Bear begins to grow and, one day, he no longer fits in his little boat. Poor Little Bear. Does getting bigger mean giving up the things you love? Every child who experiences growing pains will appreciate Little Bear's story. They will smile with satisfaction as the solution unfolds to Little Bear's problem in simple, lyrical words and charming illustrations.
