Bear wakes up in autumn with a story to tell. He sets out to find his friends, but each one is busy preparing for winter. Bear helps Mouse, Frog, Turtle, and Snake with their tasks. By the time he's helped everyone, winter has arrived, and his friends are asleep. Bear feels sad, thinking he missed his chance, but then realizes that his helpful actions *were* the story. In the spring, he finally tells his friends the story of how he helped them get ready for winter.
