Big Bear Hug

BigBearHug.jpg
Written and illustrated by Nicholas Oldland

This lighthearted modern-day fable tells of a bear who loves hugging trees and other living things bears are known to eat. When he spies a man chopping down a tree, he resists his angry urge to eat him and hugs him instead. The startled man drops his axe and runs away in fright, leaving the bear to give the tree a much-needed hug.
