Summary

Bear waits for fall as she sees the forest shift through spring and summer in this charming picture book about how the forest regrows.

Bear loves jumping in leaf piles, but fall playtime ends with winter hibernation. When Bear wakes up she realizes it’ll be a while—through spring and summer—till the leaves will fall again. While she waits, she learns about the constant work the forest does to renew her playground—and how she helps. Alongside Bear squishing through springtime mud, chomping on summer dandelions, and stretching in the early fall sun, readers will see how the forest changes with every season.
