On the night of the full moon, Bear wants to celebrate, but none of his friends agree. The birds want to sleep. Porcupine doesn't get the point. Moose says it just won't work. But that doesn't stop Bear. Undaunted, he delivers invitations, cleans up, makes food, and even takes a nap, determined to enjoy his party - even if it's a party of one. It doesn't take long for his song and dance to draw in reluctant Dad Fox, who is joined by Wolf, Moose, the birds, and eventually all the creatures in the field and forest. By the time the moon appears, Bear's clearing is alive with a rollicking chorus. Told with Bill Harley's jaunty trademark mix of story and song, and illuminated by Melissa Ferreira's digitally enhanced acrylic paintings, this book encourages us to appreciate the here-and-now, rather than wait for opportunities that don't arrive. As Bear is fond of saying, “You never know what might happen.”
