Eva is an adventurous, lively little bear who lives with her mother, father, baby sister and cousin and is always getting into scrapes. She loves exploring the forest and doesn’t listen to her parents’ warnings. She sets off one day but as the snow swirls down she wishes she had listened. Too late now, she must be brave! To Eva’s wonder, a magic snowflake emerges above the thick snow, encouraging her to find her way home - she just needs to put one paw in front of the other and discover her courage.She continues through the forest with the snowflake motivating her and finally hears Mama bear’s voice calling. She is overjoyed to see her family and excitedly tells them all about the magic sparkling snowflake guiding her. Mama bear doesn’t believe her at first.The message in the first ‘Eva the Bear’ story is about being brave even if you feel scared, facing a challenge, and keeping going! Plus, maybe there is magic in the world and within you.
