The Little Bear's Big Adventure
Little Bear lived in a cozy cave with his family. One sunny morning, he decided to explore the forest all by himself. He skipped through the tall green trees and sniffed the sweet-smelling flowers. Suddenly, he realized he didn't know which way was home! Little Bear felt a little scared. A wise old owl saw Little Bear looking worried. 'Follow the sparkling river, little one,' hooted the owl, 'it will lead you back to your cave.' Little Bear thanked the owl and followed the river.
