Am Freitag besuchte der kleine Bär immer seinen Opa. Die beiden gingen in Opas Garten, kletterten zum Baumhaus hinauf, schauten die große weite Welt an, und Opa erzählte eine Geschichte. Und der kleine Bär war so froh, wie ein kleiner Bär nur sein kann. Doch dann kam Opa ins Krankenhaus. Am Freitag besuchte ihn der kleine Bär. Und weil Opa so müde war, erzählte der kleine Bär ihm eine Geschichte. Aber als die Geschichte aus war, schlief Opa ganz tiel und fest, so tief und fest, wie man überhaupt nur schlafen kann.
