IT CAN BE TOUGH on a family when someone new has moved in, especially if it’s a 900-pound scaredy-bear so terrified of wilderness life that he’s fled to the ’burbs. Fortunately, Bear was found by Molly, a fearlessly optimistic eleven-year-old candor who has taken him firmly in hand, devoted to seeing her hirsute BFF cope with modern life.
Molly’s mom is happy with the new sibling. Bear’s an excellent conversationalist and loves her homemade cookies. But Dad is having a harder time, his role as center of the universe now shared with an ursine behemoth who, unfortunately, adores him.
