Synopsis
Alfie, a young bear cub, is eager to see his first spring. His mother tells him to sleep through the winter and wait for signs like butterflies and birds. Impatient, Alfie wakes up early, mistaking snowflakes for butterflies and icicles for birds. Each time, his mother gently corrects him. Finally, when true signs of spring appear, Alfie is too sleepy to notice, teaching him the value of patience.
