One day, Molly’s parents left her alone at her house. To her surprise, a bear broke into her house! But this Bear isn’t like any other bear; this Bear is afraid of everything. Soon, Molly and the Bear become the best of friends. They spend their entire summer together with Molly’s friend, Harper. When the first day of school comes around, Molly and Harper decide to bring Bear to school. They soon have a lot of friends and become very popular, but for some reason, their old friend Max seems to be avoiding them, and he yells at them. It’s up to Molly, Harper, and Bear to make things right with their friend.
This book is an absolute delight! It’s a quick and captivating read with a truly intriguing plot. The irony of the Bear being scared of everything despite the common belief that bears are fearsome creatures is both amusing and thought-provoking.
The characters Molly and Harper are so relatable that it’s easy to imagine befriending them in real life. The whimsical art style complements the comical tone perfectly, and I found myself chuckling throughout the entire book.
If you’re looking for a lighthearted and hilarious read that will leave you grinning from ear to ear, I wholeheartedly recommend this book.
