Bear Snores On

While bear slumbers through a long winter, his friends take refuge in his cave during a winter storm. Bear remains in a deep sleep while animal friends start a fire, make tea, pop corn, sing, and dance. When he finally wakes up, he’s surprised to find his cave full of uninvited guests who’ve been having a party without him! Told by a bass and cello, you will be sure to hear deep snoring sounds throughout the story. Score arranged/composed by 2023-24 LO Creators Corps composer, Tanner Porter.

The series is made possible through funding from The Library Foundation with support from the Robert H. Reakirt Foundation Equities through the PNC Charitable Trusts Grant Review Committee.
