Albert is a grumpy bear and he doesn’t like a lot of things. He doesn’t enjoy picnics, or fishing, and he especially loathes singing around the campfire. But there is one thing he likes a lot. Bubble baths.

The only problem is that the other animals in the forest like bubble baths too, and he can’t seem to enjoy his in peace and quiet. Albert has some cunning plans. He puts up lots of signs, he hires the best security . . . he even buries his bath underground. But whatever he does, other animals keep finding their way into Albert’s lovely, relaxing bubble bath. In one last desperate bid for solitude, he takes his bath to the skies. Will one mishap too many mean that Albert might finally have to share?
