Welcome to Story Time Family! Today, we have a fun story to read called “The Bear Who Shared” by Catherine Weiner. Let’s find out what happens in the story!
Once upon a time, there was a wise bear named Norris. Norris loved a special fruit called ploranges. They were the best fruit of all! Norris was waiting under the plorange tree because he knew something exciting was going to happen.
But guess what? Norris wasn’t the only one who loved ploranges. Two other friends, Tulip and Violet, loved them too!
Tulip and Violet came closer to the plorange. It looked so yummy! Wise Norris just watched and waited. Tulip and Violet sniffed the plorange. It smelled like honey and sunny days. They listened to it, but it didn’t make a sound. They hugged it, and it felt as soft as cotton candy.
All this time, Norris was still waiting. Just when Tulip and Violet were about to taste the plorange, something surprising happened!
Oh wow! The plorange was ready, and Norris’s wait was over. But what about Tulip and Violet? Norris was not only wise but also very kind. He decided to share the delicious, sun-kissed, soft plorange with his friends, Violet and Tulip.
And guess what? Norris was right! Sharing made everything better. Under the plorange tree, something special happened. Norris made two new friends, and from that day on, they shared everything together.
