Bear and Bird: The Adventure and Other Stories by JarvisBird feels a flutter of jealousy when Bear is unduly entertained by the jocular Mole in Jarvis's third set of stories about the endearing pair. Usually, a new wonky stick for Bird's collection would be exciting, but . . . not today. "Hmm," said Bear. "Well, in that case, I think it's time for . . . The Dance." Bear and Bird are the best of friends. They don't always understand each other, but both agree that all they want is to make the other happy.
