Bear is not satisfied, and neither is Little Bird. "I wish I could fly," says Bear. "I'll teach you," says Little Bird, "if you'll teach me to be big." It's a bargain. But no matter how much Bear makes his friend eat and exercise, Little Bird stays little. Then Bear's garden yields a baby pumpkin that gives him an idea. Bear draws a likeness of Little Bird on the gourd. When it is fully grown, Little Bird is thrilled with the sight of himself really big, and finds his own way to reciprocate. (Credits to Scholastic)
