What is How to Scare a Mouse and Bear about?
It is Halloween, and Bear is determined to give Mouse a fright. He tries dressing up as a ghost, a werewolf and other spooky creatures, but Mouse is not fooled. Bear’s ghostly wail sounds silly, while his werewolf costume smells just like wet dog. Then a mysterious monster knocks at the door. Could this unexpected visitor scare them both? A playful Halloween story filled with funny costumes, gentle scares and the warm friendship between two entertaining animal characters.
