“We’re going to catch a big one,
What a beautiful day!
We’re not scared. 😎

We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
Oh no! We’ve got to go through it!
🎶 Swishy swashy! Swishy swashy!”
🌊 Uh-oh! A river!
“A deep, cold river.
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
Oh no! We’ve got to go through it!
💦 Splash splosh! Splash splosh!”
🪵 Uh-oh! Mud!
“Thick, oozy mud.
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
Oh no! We’ve got to go through it!
😖 Squelch squerch! Squelch squerch!”
🌲 Uh-oh! A forest!
“A big, dark forest.
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
Oh no! We’ve got to go through it!
🌳 Stumble trip! Stumble trip!”
❄️ Uh-oh! A snowstorm!
“A swirling, whirling snowstorm.
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
Oh no! We’ve got to go through it!
🌬️ Hooo wooo! Hooo wooo!”
🕳️ Uh-oh! A cave!
“A narrow, gloomy cave.
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
Oh no! We’ve got to go in it!
😶🌫️ Tiptoe… Tiptoe… Tiptoe…”
😱 What’s That?!
“👃 One shiny wet nose…
👂 Two big furry ears…
👀 Two big goggly eyes…
IT’S A BEAR!!! 🐻”
