Hello, little Mouse.
What are you doing?
Oh, I see.
Are you going to pick that red, ripe strawberry?
But, little Mouse, haven't you heard about the big, hungry bear?
So begins this beautifully illustrated tale (a Dahlin family favorite) of the little mouse who will do anything to save his strawberry from the big, hungry bear. The alleged bear may hold all the cards but the narrator's good-natured dialogue with the mouse reveals who is really the cleverest strawberry-seeker in the story.
