Hannah Worries about Bears
Hannah woke up one morning and the first thing she did was to say
to her mother, "I'm a little bit worried."
"About what?" asked her mother.
"About bears."
Hannah was worried about bears getting stung when they put their
noses into hives to get honey.
Hannah was worried about bears stepping on ants and getting them
between their toes, where they tickle a lot.
Hannah was worried about bears sleeping too long after winter and
missing the beautiful summer.
Hannah was worried about bears.
