One day, a bear finds a piano in the forest, and at first when he touches the keys it only makes horrible noises. Intrigued, the bear plays it everyday, growing up to become a beautiful musician, beloved by all his bear friends. Two human children find him one day and persuade him to go to the city to play concerts, but the bear is worried his forest friends will be angry at him for leaving--he could not have been more wrong. Instead, they are proud of what he accomplishes.
