A bear named Gustav lived alone in his cozy bear house. But one day, someone knocked on his door. It was the three bear cubs returning - Chilly, Mokki and Bim! They were frozen on the way and asked to stay with Gustav again.
During the day, Gustav the bear cooks porridge and bakes pancakes for them, and also comes up with many different games and teaches them to write poetry. And in the evening, he tells the three bear cubs stories - about how he was little, about his little sister Olga, his cheeky cousin Barry, his strict uncle Adalbert, and Aunt Bertrude, who loved to collect all sorts of things.
Short stories can be read aloud to children over and over again. Stories about the lives of bears alternate with a bedtime story.
