About the story

Howard is a handsome Teddy Bear who loves to sit on his soft, comfortable bed and dream about adventures and trips.

One day, even though it is cold and windy, he decides to go down the stairs and investigate what is outdoors. The cold wind and the snow blow all around him, and he slips on the snow. Howard runs into all sorts of problems before he can find his way back into the house and up the stairs to his bed.

This was not the day to go outside. It was not the adventure that Howard had been dreaming about.
