Text and Images from the Book:
High up on the snowy mountains of the Himalayas lived the beautiful little Bhabhloo Bear.
Bhabhloo Bear’s fur was long, black and shiny, with not even one white hair on it.
Bhabhloo was a very, very naughty bear, loved by everyone in the jungle, but most of all, by his mother. But he was really very naughty.
