BEADY BEAR
by Don Freeman
Beady's a rare toy bear owned by appreciative Thayer, but one night he's all wound up, gets his bearings and goes out to live in a cave. Oddly enough he can't sleep a wink. He keeps going back home to get things- flashlights, newspapers, pillow- until he's all unwound and quite relieved when Thayer comes to fetch him. A happy comment on the overly adventurous, with especially humorous block prints by the author.
