What is A Bear-y Tale about?

Bear is wandering through a deep, dark forest when he meets a hungry wolf, a fierce giant, a spooky witch and a family of three bears. Each one seems ready to cause trouble, but Bear has a clever secret: a magic red-and-yellow pencil. With a quick stroke, he draws whatever he needs to escape. As the forest becomes stranger and more dangerous, Bear must use his imagination and artistic skill to outwit every frightening character he meets.
