Baby Bear and his family are moving; just as the van is about to leave, Baby Bear says that he has forgotten something and goes back inside. When his parents join him, they share memories, and things look just as they were when the house was furnished. Gradually, the memory pictures fade, and the rooms are bare again. Papa Bear carries Baby Bear into each room, and they say goodbye together.
这不止是一个搬家时对房子说再见的故事,它更是一种美丽缠绵。人真是要有这样的若有所失和留恋的,不可以拍拍屁股拔脚就走。“房子”的意思也不止是一个住所,一生里许多地点的温暖和关爱养育与扶助,都是值得离开时频频回首、热泪盈眶的。这就是为人的那一种味道,反过来我们也说:“没有人的味道!”儿童文学的很多故事就是给孩子做人的一生的味道,于是他们走到人的路上去,他们结合起来的那个人群,那个社会,那个世界,缤纷的好味道就满在眼前,满在呼吸里,耳朵也听得见。
