<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The relentlessly cheery Mouse pushes a cold-suffering Bear to new heights of melodrama in a hilarious adventure starring the unlikely pair.</b> <p/>Bear has a terrible cold. In fact, Bear is quite sure that no one has ever been as sick as he is. So when Mouse comes <i>tap, tap, tapping</i> on his front door eager to make Bear "as good as new" by reading a sunny story, singing a rousing chorus and plinking a <i>twangy </i>tune on her banjo, the pitifully coughing Bear - growing weaker by the minute - is convinced that his tiny friend does not appreciate the gravity of the situation. Can there be any saving Bear from his certain demise? Welcome the world's most lovable curmudgeon and his endearing, unstoppable sidekick in a wry new comedy sure to have even red-eyed, sniffly-nosed readers rolling with laughter.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The body language of the characters conveys a huge emotional range.
