"I loved this storybook! It's about a young bear, Lucy, and how one day she decides that today is the day that she is going to make a new friend. She goes out into the woods to make a new friend but quickly discovers that making a new friend is not going to be as easy as she thought. Lucy's attempts at trying to make a new friend are hilarious but the story is also super cute, fun, and heartwarming. I loved the illustrations of the book and the story isn't too text heavy. I think parents and kids of all ages will enjoy this book." - Lydia
