Bear can't tell time and it's causing chaos for the human family he lives with. He botches breakfast, he's late for school, he swaps music with gym class and he misses lunch too. When his time-management skills land him in a sticky situation, the family decides enough is enough. Using a 12-piece pizza pie, they teach Bear how to read a clock. Suddenly, time is on Bear's side: he's punctual, aces his classes, and fills his schedule with volunteer work and sports practices. But it isn't long before this bear begins to burn out ... Jean-Luc Fromental's engaging writing and Joelle Jolivet's signature retro design combine in this lighthearted and accessible book on the importance and how-tos of telling time.

Eventually, Father Time talks some sense into her, and she steps aside for winter and the other seasons. The story starts with an overlong autumn. The people are happy, initially, thinking they'll have a shorter winter. However, the people's praise for this lovely season goes to Autumn's head, and she refuses to step aside for winter, with disastrous consequences. Children will enjoy reading about the different personalities of the seasons and will also be gaining an insight into how nature works. Just as the people in the story, the reader may come to appreciate all the seasons and the important role they play.
