Publisher's Synopsis
This is a touching story about friendship and the cycle of life. A heartwarming and calming bedtime story that introduces young readers to philosophies and values about life. To travel the most difficult journeys, we only need to take one step out at a time, but we must keep going. Bear wakes up after a long hibernation and sets out on a journey with his friend Butterfly. "Where are we going?" Bear asked. "All places have secret destinations." Butterfly said. As they travel through forests, over hills, and across a large river, Butterfly offers her wisdom about facing adversity, fear, and living in the moment. Bear's natural impatience softens and he opens up to the world around him. As the seasons change, they find themselves once again in front of the bear's den. The landscape looks so different to different eyes, and the end of one journey is the beginning of another.
