Description
Three new adventures in which Moose, Bear, and Tiger each wish to change something about themselves but realize happiness is in accepting who you are
In three new stories, a playdate with a dog named Wolf leads Tiger to wish he were stronger, but he retrieves a lost toy and shows he has other skills to offer. Bear finds a way to make friends with a new mailman when he passes their house and doesn’t stop to share treats. And on Saturday, a game on the cat tower gets out of hand and they all collapse about laughing, but Cathy banishes the pets to play in the yard. There they reflect on the things they wished they were and realize they are perfect just the way they are. Three more delightful episodes packed with humor, friendship, and fun.
