Description
Tiny is having a party, but Bina Bear is nowhere to be found. Is that Bina hiding under a lampshade? It looks like Bina . . . but it must be a lamp. Is that Bina beneath the fruit bowl? It could be . . . but it's probably just a table. Searching for Bina, Tiny realizes something is wrong--and sets out to make it right.Tags

During a party, a bunny searches for a bear that is hiding. Bunny allows Bina Bear to continue the ruse until the bear feels like talking; a single tear falls as they confess they don't like parties. When others come looking for them, they pretend to be a pair of lamps together.
Funny and sweet.

Bina Bear doesn't like parties, but she does like her friend Tiny, who happens to be hosting a party. When Bina isn't participating, Tiny goes in search of her friend, who hides in some obvious places. The beauty of this one is that Bina is never compelled to join the party, but that Tiny accepts her for herself and helps her friend be comfortable.
Conflates, unfortunately, introversion and shyness. I don't see just how Bina, being either introverted, or shy, or possibly both, could have such a good friend as Tiny. Some characters have all the luck.
Impulse Pima. I don't like it, but maybe that's just me.
