Illustrated by James Marshall

Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1972.

First edition, first printing.

Contains publisher's 'first printing' statement to the copyright page and the date '1972' to the title page.

The story of a bear who's animal friends are worried about, until they discover he needs to sleep--and hibernate for the winter.

Charmingly color illustrated with fall activity scenes that show Carruther's animal friends trying to do things that will cheer him up, including going to a fair and riding a roller coaster.

This is the sturdy and quality bound first edition.

Nice! Faint soiling to covers, else very good plus in beige linen with burgundy and green embossed illustration depicting a grumpy bear in a coat and scarf walking with an umbrella to the front cover, and with burgundy embossed titles to the spine; lacking a dust jacket.

A presentable children's collectible.

Quarto; 32 pages.
