Our story today is a sweet, sleepy tale featuring Little Bear and his grandpa from Little Bear goes over the hill.

This time, they go on an adventure to see the stars.

Let's hear it. It's called Little Bear Sees the Stars.

Take it away, Wren.

Remember, there are no pictures. You'll have to imagine the pictures in your mind. You can imagine them however you want. Okay, here we go.

It all began on a gorgeous, vivid day in late summer, little bear was napping in his den in the middle of a dream about blueberry tarts.

The blueberry tarts had legs for some reason and were dancing all in a line, kicking up their inexplicable legs in unison.

At first they were just dancing, but then they began to sing.

Little bear, little bear, wake up, little bear, little bear, little bear, little bear, little bear, little bear, little bear, little bear, little bear, little bear, little bear, little bear. The blueberry tart's voices grew deeper and deeper until they did not sound at all like blueberry tarts should sound.

In fact, they sounded a lot more like Grandpa Bear

lifted Little Bear

Clear out of bed

And shook him awake

Little Bear

Wake up Little Bear

Grandpa

Get up lazy bones
