Three bouncing little bear siblings, wrapped tight in their winter clothes, can't wait to tromp through the snow for Baking Day at Grandma's! In a rhyming text that begs to be sung, the bears and their grandma pour and mix and stir--with breaks for hot cocoa and dancing--to create the perfect wintry treat.

With a recipe in the back, this is a perfectfamily feel-good story for thefall, winter, and any holiday spent with grandparents.
