In Mr. Bear’s class, everyone learns to write 1. Crab writes a horizontal 1, and Mr. Bear says it’s sleeping. Ant writes a tiny 1, and Mr. Bear says it’s playing hide-and-seek. Turtle writes very slowly, and Mr. Bear says don’t worry, it’s growing! Everyone writes 1 in their own way, and Mr. Bear likes them all!

This simple, sweet story serves as a great book for young readers who have just begun learning to write, and Mr Bear reminds us to embrace unique ways of thinking!
