Meet Teddy the brown bear and Freddy the black bear-two lovable forest friends who share one big thing in common: their endless love for honey! But when they both reach for the same hive, their sticky situation leads to something even sweeter-a magical partnership with bees, a barter market full of forest creatures, and a clever new way to trade using nuts, berries, and... certificates?
Told across more than 30 beautifully illustrated spreads in a soft watercolor style, Sweet Bear Co. introduces young readers to big ideas like:
Friendship and cooperation
Bartering and trade
Teamwork between animals and nature
And even an adorable introduction to money and economy!
With the wise Owl Olwin keeping records, Queen Beatrice guarding the hives, and a mischievous raccoon learning a lesson along the way, this cozy and thoughtful story will delight children and spark curiosity about how the world works.
Perfect for ages 4-8, this is a storybook that teaches through storytelling-without losing a single drop of fun (or honey).
