The forest caught on fire one day, and all the animals tried to put the fire out. A brave little bear also helped to fetch water to put out the fire. The fire was finally put out. However, the fur on the little bear's head was burned away by the fire.

Little bear told his mother sadly, “I look so ugly! Everyone is going to laugh at me. I don't want to go to school.” Mother bear said, “Don't be sad little bear, I'll make a hat for you to wear to school, and your fur will grow back in a few days.” Little bear said, “But, would it be strange If I am the only one who is wearing a hat?” Headmaster parrot happened to drop by to visit the little bear. After hearing what the little bear said, he flew back to school and announced, “Starting tomorrow, all students must wear their favorite hat to school for an entire month. After one month, we will hold a competition to see who has the best-looking hat.”

The next day, little bear wore his hat to school and saw that little elephant, little giraffe, little rabbit, and everyone else was wearing hats too. There were so many hats of different shapes and sizes. Little bear asked little monkey, “Why is everyone wearing a hat?” Little monkey replied, “Headmaster parrot said that we are going to hold a competition to see who has the best-looking hat! He asked everyone to wear a hat to school. Look, isn't my hat beautiful?” Little bear laughed when he saw little monkey's hat, for little monkey was wearing a coconut, and he looked rather funny!

One month later, the fur on little bear's head grew back and he didn't need to wear a hat to school anymore. The winner of the hat competition turned out to be Miss Turkey. Little bear told headmaster parrot, “Dear headmaster, I know you came up with this wonderful idea so that I wouldn't be laughed at in school. Thank you so much!”



有一天，森林裡失火了，所有動物都忙著救火，勇敢的小熊也跟著大家提水滅火。最後，森林的大火撲滅了，可是，小熊頭上的毛卻不小心被火苗燒光了。

小熊難過地對媽媽說：「我的模樣好醜喔！大家一定會笑我，我不要去上學。」熊媽媽說：「小熊不要難過，媽媽幫你做一頂帽子，你先戴著帽子上學，過幾天頭上的毛就長出來囉！」小熊說：「可是，只有我戴帽子，不會很奇怪嗎？」這時，學校裡的鸚鵡校長正好來看小熊，聽到小熊的話，就飛回森林學校宣布：「從明天開始一個月，所有同學都要戴上自己喜歡的帽子來上學，一個月後，我們要選出學校的帽子大王。」

隔天，小熊戴著帽子上學，一到學校發現大象、長頸鹿、兔子……等動物，都戴著各式各樣的帽子，小熊就問猴子：「你們為什麼都戴帽子呢？」猴子回答：「校長說要舉辦帽子大王比賽，要大家都戴著帽子上學，你看，我這頂帽子帥不帥？」小熊看著猴子的帽子哈哈大笑，原來猴子戴了一頂椰子帽，樣子很滑稽。

一個月後，小熊頭上的新毛全長出來了，再也不用戴帽子上學，學校也選出帽子大王－火雞姐姐，小熊對鸚鵡校長說：「校長，我知道這是你為了怕我被大家嘲笑，所想出的好辦法，真的很謝謝你。」
