Bear had never had a real Christmas... Clearly, the most important thing was pickles.Get ready for Christmas and the best kind of surprises as grumpy Bear and eager Mouse return in a funny tale full of festive cheer and friendship.One frosty night, Bear hears a tap, tap, tapping on his front door. “Merry Christmas!” cries Mouse, who has arrived for a Christmas party. Bear has never had one before, but he’s certain that pickles are essential, along with the reading of a long and difficult poem. The problem is, whenever Bear comes back from the kitchen with treats, Mouse has vanished – only to be found, small and grey and guilty-eyed, scurrying under the bed or searching the cupboard. Will there be a present for Mouse? Even just a tiny one?

Der alte Bär hat Geburtstag. Aber er mag keine Geburtstage – ebenso wenig wie Glückwünsche, Geschenke und Partys. Viel lieber will er in Ruhe seine Höhle putzen. Doch das findet die kleine Maus gar nicht gut. Sie muss ihren ganzen Einfallsreichtum aufbieten, um den alten Bären doch noch umzustimmen.

Bear does not want to go to the library. He is quite sure he already has all the books he will ever need. Yet the relentlessly cheery Mouse, small and grey and bright-eyed, thinks differently. When Bear reluctantly agrees to go with his friend to the big library, neither rocket ships nor wooden canoes are enough for Bear's picky tastes. How will Mouse ever find the perfect book for Bear?

Der alte Bär ist krank, sehr krank. Seine Augen sind rot, seine Nase läuft, und der Hals tut ihm weh. Der alte Bär fühlt sich elend und schwach. Gut, dass die Maus - klein, grau und mit blitzenden Augen - ihn besucht. Sie ist sich sicher, das richtige Heilmittel für den alten Bären zu haben. Ob es ihr wirklich gelingt, ihn wieder auf die Beine zu bringen?

The relentlessly cheery Mouse pushes a cold-suffering Bear to new heights of melodrama in a hilarious new adventure starring the unlikely pair.

Bear's efforts to keep out visitors to his house are undermined by a very persistent mouse.
