Description
A celebrated picture book is brought to life as a Mini Pop-Up Classic.
When Mummy Bear comes out to play with her baby bears, she finds three small snow bears instead. They don't look like her baby bears - but they love to play just the same games!

This timeless and well-loved story is exquisitely brought to life in a special Mini Pop-Up Classic edition, making it the perfect gift book to treasure, time and time again.
