在大森林裡,大家正準備舉辦一場超棒的營火派對!
大熊自告奮勇地說:「營火交給我,我負責去撿木柴!」
沒想到,這卻是他「倒楣之日」的開始。
大熊先是走著走著,哎喲一聲!一根尖尖的小木刺扎進了他的腳掌,好痛喔;
接著他沒看路,「砰!」一聲,額頭撞上大樹幹,腫了一個好大的包;
最慘的是,他腳底一滑,整隻熊「噗通」掉進了一個又大又臭的泥巴坑裡。
當他好不容易找到好朋友海狸要拿木柴時,原本乾乾的木柴竟然被大雨淋得溼答答的,根本點不著火。
大熊垂頭喪氣地坐在地上,覺得自己搞砸了一切,這一天真是糟透了!
這時候,小青蛙跳了過來,他沒有說「沒關係啦」,而是陪在大熊身邊,帶他換個角度看世界。小青蛙告訴他:
「腳上的刺拔掉就不痛了,而且你看,你現在有個超帥的英雄腫包耶!」
「雖然木柴溼了,但你看這片泥巴坑,不正適合來場泥巴大賽嗎?」
在大熊眼中,那些「糟糕的事」好像慢慢變得沒那麼討厭了。
原來,只要有朋友的陪伴和一點點轉念,再糟糕的一天,最後也能變成最棒的回憶。
