Ben the Bear: A Day Out
(eBook)

Ben the Bear is enjoying a peaceful morning in his cosy cave when he is disturbed by the noisy squirrels outside, squeaking and chattering. Annoyed, Ben throws his favourite pillow at them, but the squirrels take it and refuse to return it unless Ben helps them gather food for the winter. Ben reluctantly agrees and promises to collect acorns, berries, and nuts for them. After several misadventures, including a failed attempt to steal honey from bees, Ben finally helps the squirrels collect the food they need. Once they have enough, the squirrels leave him alone. Ben, still hungry, tries to find food at a camper but gets scared and runs off. When he returns to his cave, he finds it filled with honey, nuts, and berries, secretly provided by the squirrels. Ben eats his fill, grateful for their kindness, and learns that "one good deed deserves another." About the Author With a rich background in Economics and Psychology, S. K.
