It was when -he was a weenty baby, before he was big enough to have a porridge bowl -of his own, or a tiny chair, or a wee bed upstairs. It happened this -way: - -When middle-sized Mother Bear came down one morning to get breakfast, -she carried Baby Bear in her arms and put him in his wooden cradle with -the rockers. He was wide awake, but while he lay there watching the fire -in the big fireplace and listening to the teakettle singing and the -porridge bubbling, he fell asleep again. - -Quietly Mother Bear filled the big, big porridge bowl and the -middle-sized porridge bowl. Then she motioned for Father Bear to sit at -the table. - -"Isn't the porridge too hot?" whispered Father Bear, in a big, gruff -whisper. - -Middle-sized Mother Bear tasted the porridge and it burned her mouth. -"Yes, it is too hot," she agreed. - -"I will go for a walk in the forest while the porridge cools," said -Father Bear as he reached for his big hat and tiptoed softly to the -door. - -A few moments later Mother Bear stepped out to get a basin of rain water -for Sonny Bear's bath. Sonny Bear was sound asleep, but Mother Bear -carefully closed the door behind her when she left the little house. - -One moment later, a man, carrying a gun, saw the house in the forest, -and, wondering who might live there, walked up the path and knocked at -the door. He had been walking since daylight and was tired and hungry. - -Straightway Mr. Man lifted the latch, went in, and walked over to the -cradle. Instead of a little pink and white baby in the cradle, there lay -a baby bear, sound asleep. Mr. Man smiled and stooped over to take -Little Bear in his arms. - -"I'll carry you home to my children for a pet," said Mr. Man. - -At that moment middle-sized Mother Bear opened the door. Oh, but she was -frightened when she saw a man with a gun in his hand leaning over her -baby's cradle! She feared he would run away with the baby and shoot -whoever tried to stop him. Middle-sized Mother Bear tried to think what -to do and in a second she remembered that sometimes men are afraid of -fire. Running to the fireplace she seized a blazing log and darted at -Mr. Man. One end of the log was not on fire, so Mother Bear didn't get -burned. - -[Illustration] - -But that man! When he saw Mother Bear coming toward him with a blazing -log, he jumped for the door and was gone before she had time to think -twice! And he was never again seen near the Three Bears' home! - -Little Bear loves to hear about that man to this day. - - - - - GRANDFATHER GRIZZLY - - -Little Bear's parents had never told him about his Grandfather Grizzly, -but Auntie Cinnamon's twins told Little Bear that Grandfather Grizzly -talked like this: "Gr-gr-gr-ger-ger-row-rowl!"—only they made it sound -like the north wind in November. - -Little Bear shivered with fear. That pleased the twins so much they told -one story after another, just to see Little Bear look frightened. But -the joke was on them, because, while they were trying to scare Little -Bear, they had frightened themselves so badly they jumped every time the -friendly owl spoke in the forest. - -Of course Little Bear straightway asked Father Bear many questions about -Grandfather Grizzly and his folks. At last he said, "If I ever meet a -grizzly, up I go, up I go, to the top of the highest tree!" - -"No, indeed! You shall not be a coward!" answered Father Bear. "If ever -you see a grizzly coming, even Grandfather Grizzly himself, you walk on -and meet him." - -"Meet him!" echoed Little Bear, in faint tones. - -"Yes, Son Bear, you meet him. Meet him face to face, and say, 'Good -morning, sir.'" - -[Illustration: - - "_I'm of the old, old family of the Three Bears_" -] - -After that Little Bear did not feel so happy in the big woods. He feared -he might see a grizzly coming, and be obliged to meet him and say, "Good -morning, sir!" - -One day soon afterward, Little Bear fell asleep on a shelf of rock; he -was comfortable in the warm sunshine. When he awoke he saw below him a -huge bear patiently trying to take a bunch of burrs from the back of his -neck. The burrs were sticking tight in his fur. - -Little Bear might easily have slipped off the back of the rock and run -softly away; instead, he offered to help the stranger get the burrs out -of his coat. - -Straightway the big bear turned a troubled face upward. "Then do so," he -growled. "Jump down on my back, and use your sharp claws, young cub, and -be quick about it." His tones were rough, but Little Bear did not blame -the old fellow for that. - -When the burrs were out, Little Bear jumped to the ground. - -"I thank you, sir," said the stranger, rising and shaking his huge body. -"What's your name?" - -"Little Bear. I'm of the old, old family of the Three Bears, if you -please," was the prompt and fearless answer. - -"I am pleased to have met you," said the big bear, scratching his ear -with his hind paw. "Tell your father and mother old Grandfather Grizzly -says you are a brave young cub. If I can ever be of use to your family, -I shall be glad. Good day, sir!" And off he went through the woods, -"slipslop, slipslop," on his huge flat feet. - -[Illustration] - -Little Bear ran home as fast as he could. - -"What did I tell you?" inquired Father Bear, when he had heard Little -Bear's story. - -"I'll never be afraid of the grizzlies again," answered Little Bear, -gayly hopping about. - -But Auntie Cinnamon's twins still tremble at the thought of meeting -Grandfather Grizzly. - - - - - BABY BEAR'S PARTY - - -Baby Bear loved the birds, so Mother Bear was not much surprised when -Baby Bear dropped his wee porridge spoon at the breakfast table, and -said in a shrill voice: - -"Let's invite all the birds to a party!" - -"We will give the party to-morrow," said Mother Bear. "But what shall we -offer the birds to eat?" - -"Blackberries and honey," replied Father Bear. - -"Once I saw a robin eat a wiggly worm," said Baby Bear. - -"I'll tell you what we'd better do, Father Bear," said Mother Bear. "You -take a walk around the edge of the woods and find out what the birds -like best to eat." - -Father Bear set out gayly enough, but he came back looking sad and -discouraged. - -"We can't have the party!" he said. "I have been asking questions, and -what do you suppose I have learned? The robins eat worms, and they eat -so many that we couldn't dig enough to satisfy one robin!" - -"Then suppose we give a little party, and invite only catbirds," said -Mother Bear. - -"Catbirds!" exclaimed Father Bear, in a big, gruff voice. "Catbirds eat -grasshoppers—thirty at a time! You can't buy jumping grasshoppers by the -quart." - -[Illustration: - - _Baby Bear saw hundreds of birds in the garden, searching for bugs_ -] - -"How about the kingbirds?" questioned Mother Bear. - -"Kingbirds must have gadflies," grumbled Father Bear, "gadflies by the -peck!" - -"How about the swallows?" asked Mother Bear, who saw Baby Bear winking -hard to keep back the tears. - -"Swallows must have flies!" roared Father Bear, for he was all out of -patience. "And spotted squash beetles! I'd look well stooping over in -our garden five or six hours trying to catch squash beetles for -company!" - -"We might ask chickadees," ventured Mother Bear. She saw two big tears -rolling down Baby Bear's cheeks, so she mentioned chickadees. "They like -crumbs." - -"One chickadee," said Father Bear, in gentler tones, "would much prefer -five thousand five hundred and fifty cankerworm eggs in a day. We can't -invite chickadees!" - -"Cedar birds?" murmured Mother Bear. - -"Cedar birds dine on caterpillars. We could fill the washtubs, I -suppose, and pass them round! - -"Blackbirds spend half their lives chasing insects and eating weed -seeds. The phœbe bird works for the farmers. She eats weevils that spoil -wheat and peas and beans. The wood pewees eat flies. Woodpeckers and -meadow larks, hawks, and all owls have strange appetites!" - -[Illustration] - -Baby Bear covered his face, and wailed. - -This would be a sad story if it ended here, but it does not. - -The birds loved Baby Bear, and when they found out why he cried so loud, -they came in flocks to comfort him. - -After that, when Baby Bear awoke, he always saw hundreds of birds in the -garden, searching for bugs, worms, and grasshoppers. - -And that is the reason why the Three Bears have such a wonderful garden. - - - - - WHEN MOTHER BEAR MADE PICKLES - - -One year the Three Bears decided to make pickles. They didn't like -pickles themselves, but whenever Goldilocks and her family had picnics -in the forest they brought pickles. - -"We'd better make pickles this year," said the Middle-sized Bear, "so if -Goldilocks should come to see Sonny Bear we could offer her something -she likes, to eat with her porridge." - -Next day Big Bear took a huge basket and went for wild cucumbers. When -he brought them home Middle-sized Bear, with Baby Bear's help, began -making pickles. They washed the cucumbers in the big dishpan. Then -Middle-sized Bear gave Sonny Bear a big spoon and a bag of coarse salt. - -"Put the salt on the pickles," said Mother Bear. - -For a few minutes Baby Bear did as he was told, and shoveled salt on the -pickles. He was having a good time playing with the salt, when suddenly -Baby Bear thought the salt looked so much like sugar that maybe it was -sugar. By and by Baby Bear was so sure the salt was sugar that he opened -his mouth wide and put in a big spoonful. Then how he roared and cried! - -[Illustration: - - _Baby Bear was having a good time playing with the salt_ -] - -Father Bear came running in, and Mother Bear scooped salt out of Baby -Bear's big mouth until she wondered how one spoon could have held so -much. When she couldn't see any more salt, she washed Baby Bear's mouth -with cold water from the spring. - -After awhile Mother Bear put a large box of mustard on the kitchen -table, and left it there while she went into the pantry to read a recipe -for making mustard pickles. - -Baby Bear wondered what was in that yellow box. Then he climbed in the -middle-sized Mother Bear's middle-sized chair and reached for it. He -worked and worked and worked until finally off came the cover of the -box, and the mustard flew into Baby Bear's eyes. That mustard was so -strong and hot it burned like fire! - -Father Bear came running and Mother Bear came running! The mustard got -in their eyes, too, and soon the Three Bears were dancing up and down on -the kitchen floor, crying out, "Mustard! Mustard! Mustard!" - -Then Father Bear had an accident. He knocked the pickles off the broad -window sill into the sand. - -"Never mind," said Mother Bear, as she carried Baby Bear to the door for -fresh air; "the pickles wouldn't have been good anyway, for the book -I've been reading says pickles must be made of garden cucumbers!" - -[Illustration] - -It was a long time before wee Baby Bear stopped crying. Perhaps he might -have cried until bedtime if a bumblebee hadn't brought him a bit of -honey. - -After that the Three Bears went to walk. - -"Anyway," said the Middle-sized Bear, as she tied Baby Bear's bonnet -strings, "anyway, there isn't anything so good as porridge! If -Goldilocks can't eat porridge, if she ever comes visiting Baby Bear, she -will have to go hungry! We shall certainly never make any more pickles!" - -And they never did. - - - - - LITTLE BEAR AND BOB WHITE'S CHILDREN - - -One lovely spring morning Father Deer knocked at the door of the Three -Bears' home in the forest. - -"Come in, Friend Deer, come in!" was Father Bear's welcome as he opened -wide the door. "Come in and have a bowl of porridge!" - -"No, I thank you," answered Father Deer, "I am on my way to the wheat -field for breakfast. Where is Sonny? Oh, there he is, behind his mother! -Little Bear, I came to ask you to go for a walk with me, if your father -and mother are willing. I should like to take you to see Bob White's -children." - -"Oh, may I go, may I go?" asked Little Bear in a shrill, happy voice. - -"To be sure, to be sure!" answered Father Bear. - -"But don't wander far from Friend Deer," warned his mother as she kissed -Little Bear good-by. - -Straight to the edge of the forest bounded Father Deer, with Little Bear -close at his heels. When the two were near the wheat field they heard a -brown bird singing in sweet tones, "Bob White! Bob White!" - -[Illustration: - - _Little Bear didn't go too near for fear of scaring the babies_ -] - -"He is a fine fellow, that quail who calls himself Bob White," said -Father Deer. It was the first time he had spoken. Plump Little Bear was -nearly out of breath trying to keep pace with Mr. Deer of the long legs, -so he was glad to stop for a short talk. - -"That gentle bird works for the farmer all the year," Father Deer -continued, as he stood beside Little Bear, looking through the bushes -back of the stone wall surrounding the wheat field. "During the summer -he works twelve hours a day destroying all kinds of bugs and worms. He -eats hundreds of garden bugs at a time, Little Bear!" - -"I suppose he has to eat enough to last while he sleeps all winter," -suggested Little Bear, looking wise. - -"Quail do not sleep all winter, and neither do our folks!" corrected -Father Deer. "During the delightful winters when you bears are all -tucked away in bed, sleeping as if you never intend to wake up, Bob -White dines on weed seeds. He has been known to eat five thousand weed -seeds at one meal!" - -Soon Father Deer led Little Bear to Bob White's home, and introduced him -to the family—Bob White, Mrs. Bob White, and their eighteen children. -Their nest was on the ground in the fence corner. Little Bear didn't go -too near for fear of scaring the babies, who, with their beady black -eyes, looked like balls of down. - -[Illustration] - -While Father Deer nibbled the new wheat, Little Bear stayed near the -nest where he could see the Bob White children eat their breakfast. - -"What would you do if a man should come out here and carry off your -babies?" asked Little Bear, who longed to take one of the babies in his -own big paw and give it a weenty squeeze. - -"Come, children," said Mrs. Bob White, "let us show Little Bear what -would happen if a man should try to carry you off. Come on, we will play -hide and seek with him." - -Mrs. Bob White knew that Little Bear wouldn't take one of her children -in his big paw and give it a weenty squeeze. "Come, children, run and -hide. When you find one of my children, Little Bear, you say 'I spy!' -Ready, children! One, two, three, hide!" - -In a twinkling there was not a baby quail in sight. They scattered so -quickly the minute their mother said "Hide!" that Little Bear was -astonished. He searched and searched through the grass, but not a baby -quail could he find. Then he noticed that Mrs. Bob White seemed to have -broken her wing. - -"How did it happen, Mrs. Bob White! Oh, how did it happen!" exclaimed -Little Bear in distress, as he ran after her. - -Immediately Mrs. Bob White straightened her wings and laughed. "Come, -children," she called, and up rose eighteen baby quail from the grass -where they had been playing hide-and-seek in plain sight. - -"But didn't you get hurt?" inquired Little Bear. - -"Not a bit of it!" replied Mrs. Bob White. "That is a trick of ours to -give the babies a chance to hide. If a man should come out here to get -my babies he would follow me just as you did, because he would believe, -as you did, that I had broken my wing." - -[Illustration] - -"Do the children always mind when you say 'Hide'?" inquired Little Bear. - -"Always," replied Mrs. Bob White. - - * * * * * - -At home Little Bear had a wonderful story to tell of children who always -obeyed their mother. No wonder Mother Bear was glad she let Little Bear -go for a walk. He was a more obedient Little Bear ever after. - - - - - MAPLE SUGAR FOR LITTLE BEAR - - -Goldilocks liked maple sugar. One springtime she asked her father and -her mother so many questions about how maple sugar is made, that Father -Goldilocks finally said. "Let us take a vacation. Let us pack up and go -to the sugar bush." - -"What's a sugar bush?" asked Goldilocks. - -"A sugar bush," explained Father Goldilocks, "isn't a sugar bush. We say -sugar bush when we mean a forest of maple trees. The sap of sugar maples -is sweet, and—" - -"What is sap?" interrupted Goldilocks. - -"The sap of a tree," replied Father Goldilocks, "is its juice. The tree -sends its roots deep into the ground after water to make its leaves -grow. After the cold winter is over and the frost is out of the ground, -the roots work hard pumping water up into the tree to help it quickly -put on a new dress of fluttering green leaves. Sugar maples tell their -roots to bring sugar out of the earth; they wish their sap sweetened." - -"But how do we get maple sugar?" persisted Goldilocks. - -"We tap the sugar-maple trees," began Father Goldilocks. - -[Illustration] - -"What is tap?" inquired Goldilocks. - -"To tap a tree," her father went on, "is to make a little hole in the -trunk. Out of that the sap will drip. Sugar makers drive sticks in these -holes in the trees, and hang buckets on them. The buckets are soon -filled with sap. The sap is then boiled until all the water is gone and -only sugar is left. That's how we get maple sugar." - -The very next day Goldilocks and her father and her mother drove to the -forest and cleaned up a deserted little cabin where Father Goldilocks -had made maple sugar when Goldilocks was a baby. Such a merry time they -had, getting the little cabin ready to live in! - -Late that afternoon the three took a long walk in the woods. Father -Goldilocks carried a big, big bucket. Mother Goldilocks carried a -middle-sized bucket, and the wee, wee Goldilocks carried a wee, wee -bucket. - -At last they reached a beautiful, sunbright clearing where stood three -maple trees in a row: a big maple tree, a middle-sized maple tree, and a -little maple tree. - -"Oh, let us tap these trees and hang our buckets here!" begged -Goldilocks. - -She didn't know that that sunbright clearing was Little Bear's -playground; neither did Mother Goldilocks know it, nor Father -Goldilocks. - -"This is a long way from our camp," objected Mother Goldilocks. - -"But morning walks are lovely," added Goldilocks. - -"So they are," agreed Father Goldilocks. "Suppose we tap these trees and -come after our buckets of sap early in the morning when the birds are -singing. This once we will make a long journey for the first sap of the -season. Tomorrow we shall begin tapping the trees in our own camp, and -soon you shall have maple sugar." - -[Illustration: - - _At last they reached a beautiful, sunbright clearing where stood - three maple trees in a row_ -] - -"We shall get up early, early," promised Goldilocks, "and come out here -before breakfast"; and away she danced, happy as any forest bird. - -Goldilocks and her father and her mother did get up early in the -morning, but the Three Bears rose earlier still and went out to walk. -They were very hungry, because of their spring appetites. When they -reached the sunbright clearing and saw three buckets hanging from three -maple trees, they were surprised and pleased. - -"I'm thirsty," said Father Bear. "I shall take a drink of this -cool-looking water." And he lifted the big, big bucket, that was -dripping full of maple sap, and took a taste. - -"I'm thirsty, too," said Mother Bear, "so I'll take a drink!" She lifted -the middle-sized bucket, that was dripping full of maple sap, and tasted -it. - -"And I'm thirsty, too," added Little Bear, "so I'll take a drink of -water!" Then he lifted the wee, wee bucket, dripping full of maple sap, -and took a sip. - -"Mine is sweet!" exclaimed Father Bear. - -"Mine is sweet!" added Mother Bear. - -"And mine is sweet!" cried Little Bear. - -The Three Bears drank every drop of the maple sap, and then went on -dancing and singing for joy. - -And now came Goldilocks and her father and mother. - -"Somebody's been drinking my sap!" shouted Father Goldilocks. - -[Illustration] - -"Somebody's been drinking my sap!" echoed Mother Goldilocks. - -"And somebody's been tasting of my sap!" exclaimed Goldilocks, "and he -has drunk it all up!" - -Back to their own camp went the Goldilocks family, and there they lived -undisturbed all the season and made most delicious maple sugar. - -As for Mother Bear and Father Bear, after they learned that maple trees -have sweet juice they tapped trees and caught more sap, until one happy -day, soon after, they, too, learned to make maple sugar. - -Ever since, Little Bear, as well as Goldilocks, has had maple sugar in -the springtime. He likes it. - - - - - WHEN THE STORM CAME - - -Big Father Bear and middle-sized Mother Bear were often obliged to leave -Little Bear at home when they went away on business. Early one morning, -when they were going after honey, they said, "Be a good child, Sonny -Bear, while we are gone. Don't step outside the front gate or the back -gate." - -Little Bear promised, and all the forenoon he played happily in the -garden, and sang: - - "Ta-de-dum, dum, dum! - Ta-de-dum, dum, dum!" - -as only a happy little bear can sing. - -Early in the afternoon Mother Deer passed the house. "Little Bear," she -called "there is a big storm coming, and your parents are away. Come -home with me and stay until the storm is over." - -"I thank you," answered Little Bear, most politely, "but I promised -father and mother that I wouldn't go outside the yard." - -Soon Father Rabbit came hopping along home. - -"Storm coming, Baby Bear," he called. "Come home with me until it is -over. There is nothing like a warm, dry burrow when there is a storm." - -[Illustration: - - _A big, wet, shaggy dog tumbled into the room_ -] - -But Little Bear would not go. Soon Mrs. Reynard came hastening homeward. - -"Come, child, come!" she called to Little Bear. "Come and cuddle up with -my children until the storm is over." But Baby Bear would not go, -although the clouds were piling up and up above the forest, and the -trees were beginning to toss their branches to and fro. One by one the -squirrels, the butterflies, the birds, and the bees went by. Baby Bear -felt queer and lonely; but he would not go outside the yard, although -other neighbors invited him to their homes. - -At last pit-pat, pat, pat, patter—patter—patter down came big drops of -rain. Suddenly two clouds rushed together over the little house in the -forest, and they roared—crashety—crashety—bang—bang—bang! Little Bear -knew that the sound was only thunder, and that the blinding flashes that -soon came thick and fast were nothing but lightning, but he ran into the -house and shut the door. - -Big Bear had often told Little Bear that if ever he felt queer and -lonely, the thing to do was to whistle. Little Bear felt queer and -lonely now, so he puckered up his lips and whistled cheerily, although -the storm made such an uproar that his best whistling sounded weak. -Weaker still was a little pitiful whine outside the door, but Little -Bear heard it, ran to the door, and opened it wide. A big, wet, shaggy -dog tumbled into the room. - -[Illustration] - -Little Bear was so glad to see the dog that he ran to the cupboard to -get him some bread. When he came back he thought the poor dog was dead, -but he came to life instantly, and winked at Little Bear. Then he -laughed, and rolled over and over on a rug, and dried his wet fur. - -[Illustration] - -"I believe I'll get him some fruit," Little Bear said to himself, as he -took a clean dish and went to the cupboard. When he came back the dog -was sitting in Big Bear's chair, playing Big Bear's flute! - -Little Bear ran upstairs to get the dog a coat. When he came back, the -dog was pretending to ride a goat! Sonny Bear then went to get him some -shoes, and when he came back that dog was reading the news. Just for -fun, Little Bear then looked for a key to fit in the lock, and sure -enough, that dog began to wind the clock! - -"Now I know who you are!" declared Little Bear. "You are Mother -Hubbard's dog!" - -And then the dog, because he was so glad that Little Bear knew him at -last, began to dance a jig, and he did tricks, one after another, that -kept Little Bear laughing until the storm was over. - -Soon came Mother Hubbard, searching for her dog, "Oh, Little Bear," she -said, "I thank you for being so kind to my dog! He hasn't had a bone for -so long on account of my cupboard's being bare! He would have perished -in the storm but for you, and without my dog I couldn't expect to get -into another Christmas stocking! I wouldn't be worth mentioning if I -were separated from my dog." - -"Bow-wow!" answered the saucy dog. And then he did all his tricks again, -and made Mother Hubbard, big Father Bear, middle-sized Mother Bear, and -Little Bear all laugh. - -That night Sonny Bear stirred and murmured in his sleep, "I am so glad I -didn't go! I a-m s-o g-l-a-d!" - - - - - SONNY BEAR'S ADVENTURE IN - GOLDILOCK'S CAMP - - -One summer Father Goldilocks and Mother Goldilocks took Little -Goldilocks and went to the forest to camp out. Their tent was new and -white, and they found that the forest was a delightful place for a home. - -Early every morning Mother Goldilocks rose to get breakfast. One -morning, when she had blackberries ready in three bowls on the table, -Father Goldilocks said: "Let us go to the river and catch some fish for -breakfast." - -In a few moments Father Goldilocks, Mother Goldilocks, and Little -Goldilocks were on their way to the river. - -Then along came Little Bear, out for a morning walk. It happened he had -never seen a tent before. - -"It must be somebody's house," said Little Bear, as he knocked loudly on -the front pole of the tent. Nobody answered his knock, so Little Bear -opened the flap and walked in. - -Near the table were three chairs in a row, a big, big camp chair for -big, big Father Goldilocks, a middle-sized camp chair for middle-sized -Mother Goldilocks, and a wee, wee chair for wee, wee Goldilocks. - -[Illustration] - -After his long walk, Baby Bear was tired; so he sat down to rest in the -big, big camp chair, but it was too high to be comfortable. He then -tried the middle-sized camp chair, and that was too low to be -comfortable. But when Little Bear tried the wee, wee camp chair for the -wee, wee Goldilocks, it was neither too high nor too low; it was just -right. So Little Bear sat hard in that wee, wee camp chair until he -broke the bottom right out. - -Then Little Bear decided to try the beds. In the tent were three beds, -made of hemlock boughs and leaves, covered with blankets; a big, big bed -for big, big Father Goldilocks, a middle-sized bed for Mother -Goldilocks, and a wee, wee bed for the wee, wee Goldilocks. - -First Little Bear tried the big, big bed, but it was too hard for him. -Then he tried the middle-sized bed for Mother Goldilocks, and it was too -soft for him. But when Little Bear cuddled down in the wee, wee bed for -the wee, wee Goldilocks, it was neither too hard nor too soft; it was -just right. So he went sound asleep. - -Soon Father, Mother, and Little Goldilocks came home. The minute they -opened the flap of the tent, Father Goldilocks exclaimed in a big, big -voice: "Somebody has been sitting in my chair!" - -"Somebody has been sitting in my chair!" exclaimed middle-sized Mother -Goldilocks. - -"And somebody has been sitting in my chair," added wee, wee Goldilocks, -beginning to cry, "and he has sat the bottom right out!" - -"Somebody has been lying in my bed!" thundered big Father Goldilocks, in -a big, angry voice. - -"Somebody has been lying in my bed!" declared dear, middle-sized Mother -Goldilocks. - -"Somebody has been lying in my bed," exclaimed wee, wee Goldilocks, in a -shrill, shrill voice, "and there he is!" - -[Illustration: - - _So Little Bear went sound asleep_ -] - -[Illustration] - -When the Goldilocks family came home, Little Bear began to dream that a -thunderstorm was raging in the forest, until wee Goldilocks stood beside -him, and said in her shrill voice, "There he is!" - -Little Bear awoke then, and when he saw good Father Goldilocks, Mother -Goldilocks, and wee Goldilocks standing beside him, looking so angry, he -sprang to his feet, and ran out of the tent, nor did he stop running -until he reached his own home in the deep forest. When the three -Goldilocks saw Little Bear run out of the tent they began to laugh. But -Little Bear was so frightened he didn't go near the tent home again that -summer. - - - - - WHAT FATHER BEAR SAID WHEN HE - WAS TIRED - - -One day the big, big Father Bear said something when he was tired that -made the middle-sized Mother Bear jump so she dropped a pan of apples -off her lap, while Baby Bear danced around and laughed and laughed as if -he never would stop. - -It happened this way. These Three Bears who lived in the forest were so -fond of blackberries they had planted a patch of blackberry bushes in -their own garden. Father Bear then bought three hoes—a big, big hoe for -himself; a middle-sized hoe for the middle-sized Mother Bear, and a wee, -wee hoe for the wee, wee Baby Bear. He also bought three tin pails—a -big, big tin pail for himself, a middle-sized tin pail for the -middle-sized Mother Bear, and a wee, wee tin pail for the wee, wee Baby -Bear. - -Every cool June morning the Three Bears used to work in their garden. -Big Father Bear used to hoe the earth around the roots of the big, big -blackberry bushes; middle-sized Mother Bear used to hoe the earth around -the middle-sized blackberry bushes, while wee, wee Baby Bear used to hoe -the earth wherever he chose. - -Every evening, except when it rained, the Three Bears went through the -garden gate and down the path to the river, where they filled their -pails with water. The big, big Father Bear carried water to pour around -the roots of the blackberry bushes in his big, big pail, while the -middle-sized Mother Bear carried water in her middle-sized pail, and the -wee, wee Baby Bear carried water in his wee, wee pail. - -One morning Mother Bear said it was too warm to work in the garden. - -"But I wish to hoe in the garden!" exclaimed big, big Father Bear in his -big, big voice. - -"And I wish to hoe in the garden!" said the wee, wee Baby Bear in a -shrill little voice. - -Mother Bear stopped washing three porridge bowls long enough to say, -"All right, Father Bear, but Baby Bear must stay in the house and play -with his blocks until it is cooler out of doors!" - -For a few minutes Baby Bear cried hard because he had to stay in the -house, and then he settled down happily to play with his blocks. - -[Illustration: - - _Mother Bear jumped so the apples rolled to the floor_ -] - -Father Bear immediately put on his wide straw hat and went into the -garden, where he hoed and hoed and hoed without saying a word. After a -while Father Bear felt so warm and tired he stopped to rest a few -minutes. He took off his big, big straw hat. He pulled out his red -bandana handkerchief and wiped his face. Then he fanned himself with his -big, wide hat, but he didn't say one word. - -Soon Father Bear picked up his hoe again and hoed and hoed. At last, -when he was too tired to hoe any longer, he left the garden and walked -into the house. - -Mother Bear was sitting in her middle-sized chair with her back to the -door. She was paring apples to make apple sauce, and didn't see Father -Bear when he kicked off his big, floppy slippers; but Baby Bear saw him, -and smiled. - -Then something happened! Father Bear, with a wink at Baby Bear, sat down -in his big, big chair, hard and suddenly—bump! He sat down so hard the -porridge bowls rattled in the cupboard! Next he put both feet on the -table, pulled out his red bandana to wipe his face, and burst forth in a -loud tone—"Oh, hum!" - -It was then Mother Bear jumped so the apples rolled to the floor, and -Baby Bear danced round and round and laughed and laughed as if he never -would stop dancing and laughing. - -"Well, father," said Mother Bear in a half-pleasant, half-cross, -middle-sized voice, "don't do that again!" - -[Illustration] - -Baby Bear loved fun, and that may be why he begged, "Oh, do it again! -Please do it again!" - -Father Bear nodded his head at Baby Bear, grinned, and said louder than -ever, in the biggest, big bear voice, "Oh, hum! Oh, hum! Oh, -hum-ey—hum—hum!" - -Then the Three Bears laughed and laughed until they cried, and Big Bear -had to pass around his big, red bandana to wipe away their tears! But he -didn't hoe any more that day, because it certainly was too warm. - - - - - HOW LITTLE BEAR WENT TO A PICNIC - - -One time Little Bear went to a picnic to which he was not invited. It -happened this way. On a lovely summer morning five big girls had a -picnic, and left their baby brothers and sisters at home. The babies -didn't cry, because they were all taking naps when the big sisters -packed their picnic baskets and walked to the forest. - -"I almost wish that I had brought my little sister," said one of the -girls on reaching the woods. - -"So do I," said another. "I feel lonesome without my little, laughing -sister." - -"And my baby brother," added another girl. "I thought he would be too -much bother, but if he were only here, how happy he would be! I am -lonely, too!" - -"If we had brought our little brothers and sisters," said the fourth big -girl, "we would have our picnic on the edge of the woods, without going -a step farther!" - -"They might have taken naps under the trees after dinner," agreed the -fifth big sister. - -Then, instead of spreading their tablecloth on the green grass on the -edge of the forest, the five big girls walked on and on until they -reached a beautiful clearing where sunshine streamed in and drove the -shadows back among the trees. The girls didn't know that the beautiful -clearing was Little Bear's favorite playground. They didn't know that a -vine-covered path led from the clearing straight to the home of the -Three Bears. - -[Illustration: - - _Soon came all the Three Bears' wildwood friends_ -] - -Quickly the big girls unpacked their picnic baskets. They spread a white -tablecloth on the pine needles. One girl ran to the brook and filled a -pail with clear, cold water. The others filled a wooden plate with -sandwiches, and placed it on the table—ham sandwiches, jelly sandwiches, -and peanut-butter sandwiches. On other wooden plates were cookies, -doughnuts, chocolate cake, cream cake, and maple-sugar cake. One girl -had brought a dish of honey, another a can of jelly, while the biggest -girl untied a box of chocolates and put it on the table beside a saucer -of fudge. - -Then the girls gathered bunches of fringed gentians to decorate the -white cloth. Birds were singing and butterflies were flitting about when -the five big girls sat in a circle around their picnic dinner. - -But before a girl had taken a bite of anything, somebody came to the -picnic who hadn't been invited! That somebody was Little Bear. He walked -across the clearing slowly and politely. Little Bear wasn't a bit afraid -of five pretty girls sitting in a circle on his playground; he knew they -wouldn't do _him_ any harm! - -[Illustration] - -But when the girls saw Little Bear they jumped up and ran away, -screaming, "A bear! A bear! A bear!" - -Little Bear was so surprised he stood still and watched the five girls -until the last pink ribbon and blue ribbon had disappeared. Then he -doubled up, and laughed, and laughed, until Father Bear and Mother Bear -came. They laughed, too, when Baby Bear explained the fun. - -"Did they think I would eat them up?" asked Little Bear, in a shrill -voice; and then he laughed again! - -"Too bad you scared the girls away from their dinner," said Father Bear, -in his big, gruff voice; "but come to the picnic, Sonny, come to the -picnic!" - -[Illustration] - -"Yes, come to the picnic," added Mother Bear, helping herself to a -creamy chocolate. - -"Come to the picnic!" called Baby Bear, after he had tasted everything -on the table. "Come, squirrels, come, birds, come, butterflies, and -share our picnic!" - -Soon came troops of squirrels and rabbits and all the Three Bears' -wildwood friends, and to this day there is gleeful talk in the forest of -Little Bear's picnic. - -As for those five girls, the next time they planned a picnic they took -their baby brothers and sisters, and had a jolly time under the trees -near the edge of the forest, and Baby Bear never heard a word about it. - - - - - THREE BEARS IN THE ENCHANTED LAND - - -One time Father Bear and Mother Bear went on a long journey, and took -Little Bear with them. After the Three Bears had traveled many days -through the big forest, they reached the Enchanted Land. There were no -fairies or witches or gnomes or brownies in this land; but there were -springs of hot water and springs of cold water; there were straight, -tall trees and bright flowers; there were rocks of many colors, and -rugged mountains. Best of all, no hunters were allowed to harm the folks -who lived in the Enchanted Land, or who, like the Three Bears, came -there to enjoy their holidays. - -When Father Bear and Mother Bear learned they were safe from guns, no -matter what they did, they began to have a jolly time. They poked their -noses into men's pockets; they peeped into tents; they grew more -fearless every day. At last, one day, Father Bear and Mother Bear -decided to walk into one of the big hotels in the Enchanted Land and see -what it was like inside. - -Little Bear was taking a nap in the sunshine when Father Bear and Mother -Bear stepped into their hotel. No one was in sight. Father Bear and -Mother Bear followed their noses until they reached a big dining room. -On the table were bowls of sugar. Mother Bear and Father Bear helped -themselves. At first they walked softly about, but soon they began -stepping heavily and rattling dishes. Then came men—waiters. Now Father -Bear was a big, big bear, and Mother Bear was a middle-sized bear, and -the men were frightened. - -"Come, come!" one of the men cried, waving a towel, "you get right out -of this!" - -Father Bear replied in a big, gruff voice. The men didn't understand -what Father Bear said, but they didn't like his tone. - -When it became known that two huge bears were helping themselves to -sugar in the dining room, there was great excitement in the hotel. -Perhaps if the head waiter had politely requested them to leave, they -would have done so immediately; but when the pompous fellow began -shouting and throwing things at them, Father Bear refused to budge, and -Mother Bear stood firm. - -Then two men, each dragging a hose, entered the dining room from the -back and turned streams of water on Father Bear and Mother Bear. The -water, cold, steady, and blinding, shot full in their faces—swish-bang? -Then the bears were glad to run. Father Bear loves fun; so does Mother -Bear. When Father Bear saw Mother Bear looking half scared and dripping, -he laughed. When Mother Bear turned to see what amused Father Bear, and -saw him looking so ridiculous, with streams of water pouring from his -huge body, she laughed. - -[Illustration] - -"Wouldn't Sonny laugh if he saw us now!" she chuckled. "Let's shake -ourselves dry before we call him." - -Father Bear and Mother Bear supposed that Little Bear was still fast -asleep, at home. But that very minute Little Bear was having an -adventure of his own. He had no way of knowing how long he had been -asleep when a saucy squirrel nipped his ear and ran away. - -Little Bear should have stayed where he was and waited for his father -and mother to return. But Little Bear was restless, and he soon started -off for a walk. Although he knew it was not yet dinner time at the -bear's picnic grounds, he thought he would stroll over there. - -The bear's picnic grounds are back of the hotels in the Enchanted Land. -There Little Bear quickly found a small sirup can. In went his wee paw, -and out it came, dripping with sirup. He was the only bear at the party -when he found that can, although big bears and little bears soon -gathered, to be in time for dinner. - -At first Little Bear had a jolly time with his sirup can. But pretty -soon instead of licking out the sirup with his tongue, he stuck his -whole head into the can—and then he couldn't get it out! Then the fun -began—for every one but Little Bear. Men with cameras took his picture -as he danced around, trying to get that can off his head. First with one -paw, then another, Little Bear tried to get rid of that sirup can. He -bumped into other bears as he tried to get free, and was frightened by -their growling and grumbling. - -[Illustration: - - _Little Bear had a jolly time with his sirup can_ -] - -At last he got away from the picnic grounds. Then he met a dog that -began sniffing at his coat. The next thing Little Bear knew, a kind, -familiar voice was saying, "Stand still, Little Bear, and don't be -afraid. I am Mother Hubbard, and I will help you. Hush—don't speak my -name. I am traveling through the Enchanted Land as plain Mrs. Hubbard, -in order not to attract attention. My dog knew you. There, now you are -free. You need not thank me. You see, I haven't forgotten the time you -befriended my dog when he was lost in the forest." Then she disappeared. - -[Illustration] - -When Father Bear and Mother Bear found Little Bear soon afterward they -told him their adventures. Then Little Bear told his. He declared he was -homesick. - -"We are, too," confessed Mother Bear, with a smile at Father Bear. -"There is really no place like home." - - - - - TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES - - - 1.

It was when he was a weenty baby, before he -was big enough to have a porridge bowl of his own, or a -tiny chair, or a wee bed upstairs. It happened this way:</p> - -<p class='c000'>When middle-sized Mother Bear came down one morning -to get breakfast, she carried Baby Bear in her arms -and put him in his wooden cradle with the rockers. -He was wide awake, but while he lay there watching -the fire in the big fireplace and listening to the teakettle -singing and the porridge bubbling, he fell asleep again.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Quietly Mother Bear filled the big, big porridge bowl -and the middle-sized porridge bowl. Then she motioned -for Father Bear to sit at the table.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Isn't the porridge too hot?" whispered Father Bear, -in a big, gruff whisper.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Middle-sized Mother Bear tasted the porridge and -it burned her mouth. "Yes, it is too hot," she agreed.</p> - -<p class='c000'><span class='pageno' id='Page_12'>12</span>"I will go for a walk in the forest while the porridge -cools," said Father Bear as he reached for his big hat -and tiptoed softly to the door.</p> - -<p class='c000'>A few moments later Mother Bear stepped out to get -a basin of rain water for Sonny Bear's bath. Sonny -Bear was sound asleep, but Mother Bear carefully closed -the door behind her when she left the little house.</p> - -<p class='c000'>One moment later, a man, carrying a gun, saw the -house in the forest, and, wondering who might live there, -walked up the path and knocked at the door. He had -been walking since daylight and was tired and hungry.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Straightway Mr. Man lifted the latch, went in, and -walked over to the cradle. Instead of a little pink and -white baby in the cradle, there lay a baby bear, sound -asleep. Mr. Man smiled and stooped over to take -Little Bear in his arms.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"I'll carry you home to my children for a pet," said -Mr. Man.</p> - -<p class='c000'>At that moment middle-sized Mother Bear opened -the door. Oh, but she was frightened when she saw -a man with a gun in his hand leaning over her baby's -cradle! She feared he would run away with the baby -and shoot whoever tried to stop him. Middle-sized -Mother Bear tried to think what to do and in a second -<span class='pageno' id='Page_13'>13</span>she remembered that sometimes men are afraid of fire. -Running to the fireplace she seized a blazing log and -darted at Mr. Man. One end of the log was not on -fire, so Mother Bear didn't get burned.</p> - -<div class='figcenter id003'> -<img src='images/p013.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -</div> - -<p class='c000'>But that man! When he saw Mother Bear coming -toward him with a blazing log, he jumped for the door -and was gone before she had time to think twice! And -he was never again seen near the Three Bears' home!</p> - -<p class='c000'>Little Bear loves to hear about that man to this day.</p> - -<div class='chapter'> - <span class='pageno' id='Page_14'>14</span> - <h2 class='c005'>GRANDFATHER GRIZZLY</h2> -</div> - -<p class='c008'>Little Bear's parents had never told him about his -Grandfather Grizzly, but Auntie Cinnamon's twins told -Little Bear that Grandfather Grizzly talked like this: -"Gr-gr-gr-ger-ger-row-rowl!"—only they made it sound -like the north wind in November.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Little Bear shivered with fear. That pleased the twins -so much they told one story after another, just to see -Little Bear look frightened. But the joke was on them, -because, while they were trying to scare Little Bear, -they had frightened themselves so badly they jumped -every time the friendly owl spoke in the forest.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Of course Little Bear straightway asked Father Bear -many questions about Grandfather Grizzly and his folks. -At last he said, "If I ever meet a grizzly, up I go, up I -go, to the top of the highest tree!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>"No, indeed! You shall not be a coward!" answered -Father Bear. "If ever you see a grizzly coming, even -Grandfather Grizzly himself, you walk on and meet him."</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Meet him!" echoed Little Bear, in faint tones.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Yes, Son Bear, you meet him. Meet him face to -face, and say, 'Good morning, sir.'"</p> - -<div class='figcenter id001'> -<span class='pageno' id='Page_15'>15</span> -<img src='images/p015.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -<div class='ic001'> -<p>"<em>I'm of the old, old family of the Three Bears</em>"</p> -</div> -</div> - -<p class='c000'><span class='pageno' id='Page_16'>16</span>After that Little Bear did not feel so happy in the big -woods. He feared he might see a grizzly coming, and be -obliged to meet him and say, "Good morning, sir!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>One day soon afterward, Little Bear fell asleep on a -shelf of rock; he was comfortable in the warm sunshine. -When he awoke he saw below him a huge bear -patiently trying to take a bunch of burrs from the back -of his neck. The burrs were sticking tight in his fur.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Little Bear might easily have slipped off the back of -the rock and run softly away; instead, he offered to -help the stranger get the burrs out of his coat.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Straightway the big bear turned a troubled face -upward. "Then do so," he growled. "Jump down -on my back, and use your sharp claws, young cub, and -be quick about it." His tones were rough, but Little -Bear did not blame the old fellow for that.</p> - -<p class='c000'>When the burrs were out, Little Bear jumped to -the ground.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"I thank you, sir," said the stranger, rising and -shaking his huge body.

One morning, when she had blackberries -ready in three bowls on the table, Father Goldilocks -said: "Let us go to the river and catch some fish for -breakfast."</p> - -<p class='c000'>In a few moments Father Goldilocks, Mother Goldilocks, -and Little Goldilocks were on their way to the river.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Then along came Little Bear, out for a morning walk. -It happened he had never seen a tent before.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"It must be somebody's house," said Little Bear, as he -knocked loudly on the front pole of the tent. Nobody -answered his knock, so Little Bear opened the flap and -walked in.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Near the table were three chairs in a row, a big, big -camp chair for big, big Father Goldilocks, a middle-sized -camp chair for middle-sized Mother Goldilocks, and a -wee, wee chair for wee, wee Goldilocks.</p> - -<div class='figcenter id003'> -<span class='pageno' id='Page_45'>45</span> -<img src='images/p045.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -</div> - -<p class='c000'>After his long walk, Baby Bear was tired; so he sat down -to rest in the big, big camp chair, but it was too high -to be comfortable. He then tried the middle-sized camp -chair, and that was too low to be comfortable. But -when Little Bear tried the wee, wee camp chair for the -wee, wee Goldilocks, it was neither too high nor too low; -it was just right. So Little Bear sat hard in that wee, -wee camp chair until he broke the bottom right out.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Then Little Bear decided to try the beds. In the tent -were three beds, made of hemlock boughs and leaves, -<span class='pageno' id='Page_46'>46</span>covered with blankets; a big, big bed for big, big Father -Goldilocks, a middle-sized bed for Mother Goldilocks, -and a wee, wee bed for the wee, wee Goldilocks.</p> - -<p class='c000'>First Little Bear tried the big, big bed, but it was too -hard for him. Then he tried the middle-sized bed for -Mother Goldilocks, and it was too soft for him. But -when Little Bear cuddled down in the wee, wee bed for -the wee, wee Goldilocks, it was neither too hard nor too -soft; it was just right. So he went sound asleep.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Soon Father, Mother, and Little Goldilocks came -home. The minute they opened the flap of the tent, -Father Goldilocks exclaimed in a big, big voice: "Somebody -has been sitting in my chair!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Somebody has been sitting in my chair!" exclaimed -middle-sized Mother Goldilocks.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"And somebody has been sitting in my chair," added -wee, wee Goldilocks, beginning to cry, "and he has sat -the bottom right out!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Somebody has been lying in my bed!" thundered -big Father Goldilocks, in a big, angry voice.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Somebody has been lying in my bed!" declared dear, -middle-sized Mother Goldilocks.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Somebody has been lying in my bed," exclaimed wee, -wee Goldilocks, in a shrill, shrill voice, "and there he is!"</p> - -<div class='figcenter id001'> -<span class='pageno' id='Page_47'>47</span> -<img src='images/p046.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -<div class='ic001'> -<p><em>So Little Bear went sound asleep</em></p> -</div> -</div> - -<div class='figcenter id003'> -<span class='pageno' id='Page_48'>48</span> -<img src='images/p048.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -</div> - -<p class='c000'>When the Goldilocks family came home, Little Bear -began to dream that a thunderstorm was raging in the -forest, until wee Goldilocks stood beside him, and said -in her shrill voice, "There he is!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>Little Bear awoke then, and when he saw good Father -Goldilocks, Mother Goldilocks, and wee Goldilocks -standing beside him, looking so angry, he sprang to his -feet, and ran out of the tent, nor did he stop running until -he reached his own home in the deep forest. When the -three Goldilocks saw Little Bear run out of the tent -they began to laugh.

These Three Bears who lived -in the forest were so fond of blackberries they had -planted a patch of blackberry bushes in their own garden. -Father Bear then bought three hoes—a big, big hoe for -himself; a middle-sized hoe for the middle-sized Mother -Bear, and a wee, wee hoe for the wee, wee Baby Bear. -He also bought three tin pails—a big, big tin pail for -himself, a middle-sized tin pail for the middle-sized -Mother Bear, and a wee, wee tin pail for the wee, wee -Baby Bear.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Every cool June morning the Three Bears used to -work in their garden. Big Father Bear used to hoe the -earth around the roots of the big, big blackberry bushes; -middle-sized Mother Bear used to hoe the earth around -the middle-sized blackberry bushes, while wee, wee Baby -Bear used to hoe the earth wherever he chose.</p> - -<p class='c000'><span class='pageno' id='Page_50'>50</span>Every evening, except when it rained, the Three Bears -went through the garden gate and down the path to the -river, where they filled their pails with water. The big, -big Father Bear carried water to pour around the roots -of the blackberry bushes in his big, big pail, while the -middle-sized Mother Bear carried water in her middle-sized -pail, and the wee, wee Baby Bear carried water in -his wee, wee pail.</p> - -<p class='c000'>One morning Mother Bear said it was too warm to work -in the garden.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"But I wish to hoe in the garden!" exclaimed big, big -Father Bear in his big, big voice.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"And I wish to hoe in the garden!" said the wee, wee -Baby Bear in a shrill little voice.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Mother Bear stopped washing three porridge bowls long -enough to say, "All right, Father Bear, but Baby Bear -must stay in the house and play with his blocks until -it is cooler out of doors!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>For a few minutes Baby Bear cried hard because he had -to stay in the house, and then he settled down happily -to play with his blocks.</p> - -<div class='figcenter id001'> -<span class='pageno' id='Page_51'>51</span> -<img src='images/p051.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -<div class='ic001'> -<p><em>Mother Bear jumped so the apples rolled to the floor</em></p> -</div> -</div> - -<p class='c000'><span class='pageno' id='Page_52'>52</span>Father Bear immediately put on his wide straw hat -and went into the garden, where he hoed and hoed and -hoed without saying a word. After a while Father Bear -felt so warm and tired he stopped to rest a few minutes. -He took off his big, big straw hat. He pulled out his red -bandana handkerchief and wiped his face. Then he -fanned himself with his big, wide hat, but he didn't say -one word.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Soon Father Bear picked up his hoe again and hoed -and hoed. At last, when he was too tired to hoe any -longer, he left the garden and walked into the house.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Mother Bear was sitting in her middle-sized chair -with her back to the door. She was paring apples to -make apple sauce, and didn't see Father Bear when he -kicked off his big, floppy slippers; but Baby Bear saw -him, and smiled.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Then something happened! Father Bear, with a wink -at Baby Bear, sat down in his big, big chair, hard and -suddenly—bump! He sat down so hard the porridge -bowls rattled in the cupboard! Next he put both feet -on the table, pulled out his red bandana to wipe his -face, and burst forth in a loud tone—"Oh, hum!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>It was then Mother Bear jumped so the apples rolled -to the floor, and Baby Bear danced round and round -and laughed and laughed as if he never would stop -dancing and laughing.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Well, father," said Mother Bear in a half-pleasant, -<span class='pageno' id='Page_53'>53</span>half-cross, middle-sized voice, "don't do that again!"</p> - -<div class='figcenter id003'> -<img src='images/p053.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -</div> - -<p class='c000'>Baby Bear loved fun, and that may be why he begged, -"Oh, do it again!

Oh, hum-ey—hum—hum!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>Then the Three Bears laughed and laughed until -they cried, and Big Bear had to pass around his big, red -bandana to wipe away their tears!

It happened this way. On a lovely summer -morning five big girls had a picnic, and left their baby -brothers and sisters at home. The babies didn't cry, -because they were all taking naps when the big sisters -packed their picnic baskets and walked to the forest.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"I almost wish that I had brought my little sister," -said one of the girls on reaching the woods.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"So do I," said another. "I feel lonesome without -my little, laughing sister."</p> - -<p class='c000'>"And my baby brother," added another girl. "I -thought he would be too much bother, but if he were -only here, how happy he would be! I am lonely, too!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>"If we had brought our little brothers and sisters," -said the fourth big girl, "we would have our picnic on -the edge of the woods, without going a step farther!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>"They might have taken naps under the trees after -dinner," agreed the fifth big sister.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Then, instead of spreading their tablecloth on the -green grass on the edge of the forest, the five big girls -walked on and on until they reached a beautiful clearing -where sunshine streamed in and drove the shadows -back among the trees. The girls didn't know that the -beautiful clearing was Little Bear's favorite playground. -They didn't know that a vine-covered path led from the -clearing straight to the home of the Three Bears.</p> - -<div class='figcenter id001'> -<span class='pageno' id='Page_55'>55</span> -<img src='images/p055.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -<div class='ic001'> -<p><em>Soon came all the Three Bears' wildwood friends</em></p> -</div> -</div> - -<p class='c000'><span class='pageno' id='Page_56'>56</span>Quickly the big girls unpacked their picnic baskets. -They spread a white tablecloth on the pine needles. One -girl ran to the brook and filled a pail with clear, cold -water. The others filled a wooden plate with sandwiches, -and placed it on the table—ham sandwiches, -jelly sandwiches, and peanut-butter sandwiches. On -other wooden plates were cookies, doughnuts, chocolate -cake, cream cake, and maple-sugar cake. One girl -had brought a dish of honey, another a can of jelly, -while the biggest girl untied a box of chocolates and put -it on the table beside a saucer of fudge.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Then the girls gathered bunches of fringed gentians -to decorate the white cloth. Birds were singing and -butterflies were flitting about when the five big girls -sat in a circle around their picnic dinner.</p> - -<p class='c000'>But before a girl had taken a bite of anything, somebody -came to the picnic who hadn't been invited! -That somebody was Little Bear. He walked across -the clearing slowly and politely. Little Bear wasn't -a bit afraid of five pretty girls sitting in a circle on his -<span class='pageno' id='Page_57'>57</span>playground; he knew they wouldn't do <em>him</em> any harm!</p> - -<div class='figcenter id003'> -<img src='images/p057.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -</div> - -<p class='c000'>But when the girls saw Little Bear they jumped up -and ran away, screaming, "A bear! A bear! A bear!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>Little Bear was so surprised he stood still and watched -the five girls until the last pink ribbon and blue ribbon -had disappeared. Then he doubled up, and laughed, and -laughed, until Father Bear and Mother Bear came. They -laughed, too, when Baby Bear explained the fun.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Did they think I would eat them up?" asked Little -Bear, in a shrill voice; and then he laughed again!</p> - -<p class='c000'><span class='pageno' id='Page_58'>58</span>"Too bad you scared the girls -away from their dinner," said -Father Bear, in his big, gruff -voice; "but come to the picnic, -Sonny, come to the picnic!"</p> - -<div class='figleft id005'> -<img src='images/p058.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -</div> - -<p class='c000'>"Yes, come to the picnic," -added Mother Bear, helping -herself to a creamy chocolate.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Come to the picnic!" called -Baby Bear, after he had tasted -everything on the table. "Come, squirrels, -come, birds, come, butterflies, and -share our picnic!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>Soon came troops of squirrels and -rabbits and all the Three Bears' wildwood -friends, and to this day there is -gleeful talk in the forest of Little Bear's -picnic.</p> - -<p class='c000'>As for those five girls, the next time -they planned a picnic they took their -baby brothers and sisters, and had a -jolly time under the trees near the -edge of the forest, and Baby Bear -never heard a word about it.</p> - -<div class='chapter'> - <span class='pageno' id='Page_59'>59</span> - <h2 class='c005'>THREE BEARS IN THE ENCHANTED LAND</h2> -</div> - -<p class='c008'>One time Father Bear and Mother Bear went on a -long journey, and took Little Bear with them. After -the Three Bears had traveled many days through the big -forest, they reached the Enchanted Land. There were no -fairies or witches or gnomes or brownies in this land; -but there were springs of hot water and springs of cold -water; there were straight, tall trees and bright flowers; -there were rocks of many colors, and rugged mountains. -Best of all, no hunters were allowed to harm the folks -who lived in the Enchanted Land, or who, like the -Three Bears, came there to enjoy their holidays.</p> - -<p class='c000'>When Father Bear and Mother Bear learned they were -safe from guns, no matter what they did, they began -to have a jolly time. They poked their noses into -men's pockets; they peeped into tents; they grew more -fearless every day. At last, one day, Father Bear and -Mother Bear decided to walk into one of the big hotels -in the Enchanted Land and see what it was like inside.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Little Bear was taking a nap in the sunshine when -Father Bear and Mother Bear stepped into their hotel. -No one was in sight. Father Bear and Mother Bear -followed their noses until they reached a big dining room. -<span class='pageno' id='Page_60'>60</span>On the table were bowls of sugar. Mother Bear and -Father Bear helped themselves. At first they walked -softly about, but soon they began stepping heavily -and rattling dishes. Then came men—waiters. Now -Father Bear was a big, big bear, and Mother Bear was -a middle-sized bear, and the men were frightened.</p> - -<p class='c000'>"Come, come!" one of the men cried, waving a towel, -"you get right out of this!"</p> - -<p class='c000'>Father Bear replied in a big, gruff voice. The men -didn't understand what Father Bear said, but they -didn't like his tone.</p> - -<p class='c000'>When it became known that two huge bears were -helping themselves to sugar in the dining room, there -was great excitement in the hotel. Perhaps if the head -waiter had politely requested them to leave, they would -have done so immediately; but when the pompous -fellow began shouting and throwing things at them, -Father Bear refused to budge, and Mother Bear stood -firm.</p> - -<p class='c000'>Then two men, each dragging a hose, entered the -dining room from the back and turned streams of water -on Father Bear and Mother Bear. The water, cold, -steady, and blinding, shot full in their faces—swish-bang? -Then the bears were glad to run. Father Bear loves -<span class='pageno' id='Page_61'>61</span>fun; so does Mother Bear. When Father Bear saw -Mother Bear looking half scared and dripping, he laughed. -When Mother Bear turned to see what amused Father -Bear, and saw him looking so ridiculous, with streams of -water pouring from his huge body, she laughed.</p> - -<div class='figcenter id003'> -<img src='images/p061.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -</div> - -<p class='c000'>"Wouldn't Sonny laugh if he saw us now!" she -chuckled. "Let's shake ourselves dry before we call -him."</p> - -<p class='c000'>Father Bear and Mother Bear supposed that Little -Bear was still fast asleep, at home. But that very -minute Little Bear was having an adventure of his own. -He had no way of knowing how long he had been asleep -when a saucy squirrel nipped his ear and ran away.</p> - -<p class='c000'><span class='pageno' id='Page_62'>62</span>Little Bear should have stayed where he was and -waited for his father and mother to return. But Little -Bear was restless, and he soon started off for a walk. -Although he knew it was not yet dinner time at the -bear's picnic grounds, he thought he would stroll over -there.</p> - -<p class='c000'>The bear's picnic grounds are back of the hotels in -the Enchanted Land. There Little Bear quickly found -a small sirup can. In went his wee paw, and out it -came, dripping with sirup. He was the only bear at the -party when he found that can, although big bears and -little bears soon gathered, to be in time for dinner.</p> - -<p class='c000'>At first Little Bear had a jolly time with his sirup -can. But pretty soon instead of licking out the sirup -with his tongue, he stuck his whole head into the can—and -then he couldn't get it out! Then the fun began—for -every one but Little Bear. Men with cameras -took his picture as he danced around, trying to get that -can off his head. First with one paw, then another, -Little Bear tried to get rid of that sirup can. He -bumped into other bears as he tried to get free, and -was frightened by their growling and grumbling.</p> - -<div class='figcenter id001'> -<span class='pageno' id='Page_63'>63</span> -<img src='images/p063.jpg' alt='' class='ig001' /> -<div class='ic001'> -<p><em>Little Bear had a jolly time with his sirup can</em></p> -</div> -</div> - -<p class='c000'><span class='pageno' id='Page_64'>64</span>At last he got away from the picnic grounds. Then -he met a dog that began sniffing at his coat. The next -thing Little Bear knew, a kind, familiar voice was saying, -"Stand still, Little Bear, and don't be afraid. I am -Mother Hubbard, and I will help you. Hush—don't -speak my name. I am traveling through the Enchanted -Land as plain Mrs. Hubbard, in order not to attract -attention. My dog knew you.
