Bear floats through the sky in a hot air balloon, waving to his friends and refusing their invitations to climb, snack, and swim with them. But Bear has a secret: he doesn’t know how to get down. His brave (literal) cry for help brings the other animals to his aid, and he finally enjoys a cozy evening by the fire. The watercolor, colored-pencil, and digital spreads are lovely; the text gently delivers an essential lesson.
