Teddy bear Bartek is sad because his nose doesn’t look like the other bears’ noses. He’s afraid the animals will laugh at him. Thankfully, squirrel Basia is there to comfort her friend and promises to help him disguise his big red nose. But Basia has a worry too—she would like to hide her round tummy.
