00:27Sneeze, Big Bear Sneeze by Maureen Wright, illustrated by Will Hillenbrand
00:36The wind whipped through the autumn woods and swirled to the spot where Big Bear stood.
00:42It whirled the leaves right off the trees, just as Big Bear let out a sneeze.
00:49The wind said,
00:52Big Bear, can't you see? The leaves flew down because of me.
00:58Bear said,
01:00Wind, it wasn't you. The leaves fell down when I sneezed, achoo!
01:05Big Bear tried to nail the leaves back, using a hammer and some tacks.
01:13The wind kicked up and raced to the sky, swinging down low then spinning up high.
01:20She said,
01:22That bear knows nothing at all. I dropped the leaves because it is fall.
01:28Big Bear walked as the cold wind blew and came to a tree where apples grew.
01:36Just as Big Bear let out a sneeze, branches shook in a very strong breeze.
01:42Oh my, said Bear with an unhappy frown, watching the apples drop to the ground.
01:49He knew as they fell with a thumping sound that sneezing had made them all fall down.
01:59The wind said,
02:02The wind said,
02:04Bear, can't you see? The apples dropped because of me.
02:09Bear said,
02:11Wind, it wasn't you. The apples fell when I sneezed, achoo!
02:16He put the apples on a branch of the tree, stacking each one carefully.
02:23The wind swirled round the forest glen, dipping and whipping back again.
02:29It said,
02:30That bear knows nothing at all. I dropped the apples because it is fall.
02:36Big Bear lumbered down to the lake. Twenty geese rested, not one was awake.
02:44Just as Big Bear let out a sneeze, waves splashed up like a stormy sea.
02:50The geese flew off with a honking sound, flapping great wings above the ground.
02:59Oh my, said Bear as he looked up high.
03:03What have I done? he said with a sigh.
03:07The wind said,
03:09Bear, can't you see? The geese headed south because of me.
03:14Bear said,
03:16Wind, it wasn't you. The geese flew away when I sneezed, achoo!
03:25The wind spun round the autumn woods, then circled back where Bear stood.
03:31She yelled,
03:32Big Bear, I've had enough. I'm tired of this crazy, ridiculous stuff.
03:42Wind took a deep breath and let it out with a whirling, twirling, mighty shout.
03:49I whip the leaves right off the trees and drop the apples whenever I please.
03:57I scare off the geese before they freeze and tickle your nose to make you sneeze.
04:08I do it all. I'm the autumn breeze.
04:15Big Bear listened and scratched his head.
04:19You could have been right.
04:22Big Bear listened and scratched his head.
04:25You could have told me before, he said.
04:28The wind's deep sigh shook the sky.
04:32Bear said,
04:33It's time to say goodbye.
04:39He ran to the safety of his den deep in the heart of the forest glen.
04:45Suddenly, the door slammed shut. Big Bear's eyebrows shot right up.
04:54He jumped in bed and covered his head.
04:57I know my sneeze didn't do that, he said.
05:01It's only the wind on a blustery night, so no more sneezes.
05:06And he blew out the light.
05:16I hope you enjoyed that story.
