When he is unable to reattach the fallen leaves to the trees during a crisp autumn day, a young bear decides to give up and take a nap, yet when he finally awakes, an entire season has passed as he opens his eyes to a beautiful spring day and a new bounty of green leaves hanging on the branches above.
A curious bear observes how leaves change throughout the seasons.
It's a young bear's first autumn, and the falling leaves surprise him. He tries to put them back on the trees, but it doesn't work.
