Description: A baby bear who thinks the Arctic is the only place in the world one day goes on an outing to a small zoo called "Bears of the World." As the baby bear begins to learn about the world beyond the Arctic, he can't stop asking his mother questions. When Mother Bear explains that God made different kinds of bears—each with different colors and different foods to eat—and placed them in various parts of the world, the baby bear becomes curious. "Then why didn't God make us all the same?" Mother Bear patiently and gently answers her cub's questions, one by one. The baby bear comes to realize just how amazing and vast the world God made truly is. He learns about the power of God, the mysterious and creative Creator, and that we have been entrusted with the responsibility of caring well for the world. He discovers that "each bear holds a special place within God's big, wonderful world." Children, too, are in the process of discovering who they are within God's big, wide world. For them, this lovely story offers a chance to learn about the mystery of diversity, the gift of creativity, the importance of nurturing the gifts God has given us, and the truth that every child and every part of creation is special to God.
