Description

One sweet mistake leads to a wild adventure-and a lesson in living naturally!

When Mama Sugar Bear wakes from her long winter nap, her nose leads her straight into trouble... and straight to a bag of sugar from a local chocolate shop! But what begins as a sticky situation turns into a heartwarming tale of friendship, discovery, and the joy of wild places.

Inspired by a true story, this delightful picture book follows Mama Sugar Bear and her two curious cubs as they meet a kind park ranger who shows them the wonders of Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore. With gentle guidance, the bears learn to trade sweet treats for nature's own bounty-berries, honey, and fresh-caught fish.

Perfect for young nature lovers, Mama Sugar Bear is a beautifully told reminder that the world outside is full of sunshine, surprises, and everything we need to grow.
