From Amazon:
Little Bear is afraid of the dark. He tries and tries to go to sleep, but he just can't. To stop Little Bear being scared, Big Bear sets a tiny lantern next to Little Bear's bed. But the tiny lantern only lights up a small part of the cave, and there is still lots of dark. So, Big Bear brings out a bigger lantern. Still, Little Bear is not satisfied, and Big Bear is forced to bring out the Biggest Lantern of Them All. After some time though, Little Bear has not fallen asleep. "Can't you sleep, Little Bear?" asks Big Bear for the fourth time. When Little Bear points to the darkness outside, Big Bear is puzzled. How can Big Bear show Little Bear that there is nothing to be afraid of?
