A bear goes along with a girl's tea party rules in order to get cookies. Didn't like that he is low key pressured into actions he doesn't want to do but goes along to get the reward. Ends on a better note when they switch to playing bears.

A cute story - love how the bear tries to stay hidden but all he can think about are cookies! Fun

I laughed out loud reading this one to Jesse and the pets. That poor Cub ended up with Miley Cyrus hair and a big puffy dress, but he got his cookies for playing along! Plus he got to play an even better game at the end. Super cute and funny!

Welp, that was delightful. And then I got to the back page and it turns out it's by the author of [b:Boy + Bot|12448586|Boy + Bot|Ame Dyckman|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1320511825s/12448586.jpg|17431671], which is likewise about a hilarious misunderstanding that ends in play. (Spoiler alert, sort of: I am going to have to reread this to determine exactly when the bear's "disguise" fails. At some point the kid has to be on to his game, right? I don't know! Which is the kind of thing you ponder deeply when reading kids' lit, I guess.)

Update, 8 February 2018: Tried to explain to kiddo that some jokes are always funny, but this book is not one of them. Adding the “grim-obligation” tag to this one, glad we’re going to have to return it to the library.

3.5 - Cute, but I don't like the whole "Ewww I have to wear a *dress*" feel.
