Prepare for a suspenseful, sweet, and “berry” delicious adventure as we read the timeless classic “The Little Mouse, The Red Ripe Strawberry, and The Big Hungry Bear” by Don and Audrey Wood!

Deep in the woods, a tiny mouse has found a magnificent, red, ripe strawberry—but there’s a problem. A Big Hungry Bear is on the prowl, and he loves red, ripe strawberries! Through a series of clever (and adorable) attempts to hide, disguise, and lock up his prize, the Little Mouse learns that the only way to truly protect his treasure is to share it.

In this video, children will learn about:

• Sharing & Cooperation: Understanding that some things are better when enjoyed together.
• Narrative Voice: Exploring how the narrator talks directly to the character, pulling the reader right into the action!
• Overcoming Fear: Seeing how the Little Mouse handles the “scary” idea of the bear with creativity and a bit of humor.

This beautifully illustrated read-aloud is an absolute staple for toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergarteners. It’s a wonderful choice for lessons on generosity, problem-solving, or just a cozy afternoon snack-time story!
