Donovan is going on a bear hunt!

Donovan knows what he wants to eat: not eggs, not pancakes, not cereal. He wants BEAR, just like his Indigenous grandfather used to eat for breakfast! So Donovan sets off to bag a bear of his own. In the woods, he meets an ant, a squirrel, and a dog — but they are not bears, so he shoos them away! When Donovan meets a big, growling bear, he realizes that breakfast tastes best when it doesn’t have teeth!
