one day the mother bear took her cubs for a walk in the woods.she went sniffing along the ground, with  the cubs behind her. Now and then she would turn over and old log, so that the cubs could find bugs and worms to eat. All at once the mother bear grunted to the cubs in her gruff voice. They both stopped and were very quiet. The mother bear stood up on her hind legs. My, how very tall she was! she was taller than a big man. For a minute she kept very still. Then she turned round and round, sniffing and sniffing as she turned. Mother bear smelled something very good. Her nose told her that that there was a picnic not far away. She grunted softly, telling the cubs to follow her. Then she began to walk so fast that the cubs could hardly keep up with her. A the top of a hill the mother bear stopped and looked below. She grunted to the cubs again and started slowly down the hill.
