Butler, M. Christina

After awakening early from his winter sleep and wishing for someone to play with, Little Bear is joined by new friends who help him make a snowman.

"Little Hedgehog and his friends are so excited to spend Christmas together. They pick out a tree and decorate it, then happily go to bed. But the next morning, everyone is so grumpy! 'You stepped on my paws!' cries Fox. 'I can't find my socks!' moans Rabbit. 'Who was snoring all night long?' grumbles a tired Badger. And someone even ate one of the cookies that had been hung on the tree! Is their Christmas ruined?"--Dust jacket flap.

While Little Hedgehog babysits his cousin, with help from his forest friends, Baby's favorite blanket brings them some misadventures but later saves the day.
