A young bear is determined to stay awake during the winter while his family sleeps so he can finish reading the encyclopedia and thus be recognized as a separate identity from his non-bookish twin brother. No library descriptions found. |

The story is about a family of bears that eat huge amounts of never ending delicious food in preparation for hybernation. I had to at least eat a pancake after finishing it.
Turns out, the title bear isn't that smart after all. It's just a preteen twin forming his identity by focusing on developing his unique characteristics in contrast to those of his brother, Oliver, almost to his detriment.
Mediocre illustrations and writing, cute main theme. ( )
