One day, when they were searching through the Forest of Waffles, one of the bears approached them. He said, "Welcome to our forest. We are all so very glad you moved here, but we'd like to know...what are you looking for?" Mr. and Mrs. Bear answered, "We're looking for a baby bear to love. We think we'd be very good parents and we want to find a special baby bear to love and care for." The bear responded, "Why...you don't have4 to search through the forest. All you have to do is go to the end of the Forest of Bubbles and ask Fairy Bear" Mr. and Mrs. Bear asked the bear who Fairy Bear was. They did not know of her. "oh! Fairy Bear is a beautiful, magical bear. And she grants wishes!" That night, after all the furry friends were sleeping, Mr. and Mrs. Bear journeyed through the Forest of Bubbles. When thy reached the end, sure enough, there was Fairy Bear. She was surrounded by bears from the forests of Fairy Dust and Happy Times and many other friends. Mr. and Mrs. Bear introduced themselves and told Fairy Bear that they would keep their promise to love a baby bear very, very much. All they needed to do was to come back the next night and go to the oldest tree in the forest after all the furry friends were sleeping. (this can be very difficult because the bear from the Forest Puffy Clouds watches way too much TV and hates to go to sleep). Mr. and Mrs. Bear raced home but they were too excited to sleep. The next morning, Mr. and Mrs. Bear gathered all the furry friends in the center of the forest and told them that Fairy Bear was granting their wish. They all agreed to declare this part of the forest the Forest of Special Days, and from that day on, all celebrations would be held in this very spot in the Very Bear Forest. The furry friends spent the entire day preparing for the very first celebration. That night, Mr. and Mrs. Bear waited for all the furry friends to go to sleep. Of course, that pesky bear from the Forest of Puffy Clouds was watching Bear in the Big Blue House and wouldn't go to bed. Finally, the bear from the Forest of Hearts and Charms slipped in and unplugged his TV and he FINALLY went to sleep. Mr. and Mrs. Bear raced through the forest to the oldest tree. When they arrived, Fairy Bear wasn't there! They though, "Oh my! Maybe we weren't supposed to tell anyone!" Just then, Fairy Dust stepped forward and lit up the sky like it was the middle of the afternoon, and at the very base of the tree, in a little log cradle was Ronnie Bear! He was sitting up in the cradle, and he was very excited. He knew he was going home with someone who would love him very much-and someone he could love in return. Mr. and Mrs. Bear took Ronnie home and the next day there was a GREAT BIG celebration in the Forest of Special Days that lasted all day long. Ronnie Bear is now about 7 years old in bear years. He's a very good little bear. He listens to his parents, keeps his room clean and gets very good grades in Forest School. He asked his parents to do something very special for him. He asked them to take him through the Forest of Bubbles to meet Fairy Bear. He wanted to thank her for giving him the best parents any bear could ever have. Mr. and Mrs. Bear took Ronnie Bear to see Fairy Bear. Ronnie Bear gave her the BIGGEST bear hug ever and told her he was very, very happy, but he was also very sad. He told her he had lots of friends in the forest that didn't have someone to love or someone to love them back. He asked Fairy Bear to make the Forest visible for everyone to see. That way someone might come along and take of of his friends home and love them as much as his parents loved him. So Fairy Bear made the forest visible so someone like you would be perfect to take one of the furry friends home to love and to be loved by.
