The bears are excited to swim, climb, and run...all except Ursa, the littlest one. The lake looks so wide! And the tree looks so tall! As Ursa watches her siblings try new things, she learns it's OK to set her own pace in this adorably illustrated tale about facing fears by taking one step at a time.
Listening to yourself and doing things when you feel ready are important growing-up skills. Parents and children will cheer for the little bear who is brave enough to follow her instincts instead of the crowd.
