When spring comes, Bear wakes up very hungry and is treated to great food by his friends.

On a cold winter night many animals gather to party in the cave of a sleeping bear, who then awakes and protests that he has missed the food and the fun.

Bear thanks his friends for bringing food dishes to his dinner party and finds a way of sharing something of his own.

While taking a walk with Mouse, Bear meets many other friends and sees colors everywhere.

"It's time for Bear to hibernate but he can't sleep, so his friends all band together to help"--

"A big bear and a small mouse discover all of the opposites between their animal friends"--

A bear named Big and a mouse named Small head out to play. They climb a hill and cross a stream, but with each new adventure, Small finds himself in trouble. "A little help, please!" Small says to Big each time. When they return home, it's Big who needs Small's help for something very important!

Bear's animal friends come to his rescue when he becomes lost and frightened in the woods.

Bronco the dog and three animal friends, all reluctant to attend a party for various reasons, decide to go together and receive a warm welcome.
