Description
When a boy receives an invitation in the mail from Kuma-Kuma Chan (“cute little bear”
in Japanese), a friendly bear who lives far away, he travels by train, bus, and finally on foot to reach Kuma-Kuma Chan's home. Kuma-Kuma Chan welcomes him and serves tea. Even though the two don't have a lot to talk about, just by spending time together, sharing the day's activities they bond and create a friendship and enjoy each other's company. This heartwarming tale once again immerses children of all ages, in Kuma-Kuma Chan's peaceful, simple world. This charming book is the second title in the series of the beloved children’s books, Kuma-Kuma Chan, The Little Bear.

“These incredibly simple little drawings are alive. The bear has a soul. You open the book and look into a small but totally convincing world. Lovely.”
