Bear is very meticulous about his tomato garden while Bunny is worse than lazy regarding his. Obviously, Bear's tomatoes grow well and Bunny ends up with no crop. Bear gives Bunny his tomatoes even though Bunny hasn't worked hard and they both smile.

This book is about a bear and bunny that each grow their own patch of tomatoes. Bear works hard and Bunny does not. Bear's tomatoes grow and Bunny's do not. Bear gives Bunny his tomatoes even though Bunny hasn't worked hard.
I guess the moral could go either way. In a postive direction it is good that Bear shared. But, I thought that it taught a more negative aspect; you don't have to work and you will still get what everyone else has.

A folk-tale like story very similar to the ant and the grasshopper of Aesop's Fables. Bear and Bunny both decide to plant tomato gardens. Bear is very methodical about his and Bunny is not. Bear pays attention to his garden, Bunny ignores his. At the end of the summer, Bear has a plethora of tomatoes to share with Bunny, who can't seem to find his tomato garden.
Pretty adorable book with gentle and somehow still sly humor. Love the whimsical illustrations
A really cute little book teaching about responsibility and sharing.
