Meet Golden Hair, a scrappy orphan with a good heart and a knack for making friends in wild places. One day she wanders into a disaster of a cabin owned by three very surprised bears: Papa, Mamma, and Tiny.

Instead of running for the hills, she rolls up her sleeves and helps turn their chaos into comfort. What starts as trespassing turns into something better—an unexpected family built on friendship, warmth, and a whole lot of bear hugs.

Notable Quotes:
