If you could weave your life into a scarf, what would it look like? Each day Grandpa Bear adds a little piece of his life into his fantastic scarf. As Grandpa Bear grows older, his scarf grows longer and more colorful. One day his little grandson asks about the scarf, and the wise old bear explains to him how to begin his own scarf of life.

He says that the little bear will weave in the threads of his ancestors—that which is passed on to him—to give his scarf strength. He will also weave in his own unique colors, and as he envisions his scarf, the little bear sees the infinite possibilities of his life and his role in creating that life.

A heartwarming story for grandparents and parents to share with children, this book is about passing on wisdom and tradition and uses the scarf as a metaphor for creating personal life and happiness.
