Today is a perfect day for Cat, Dog, Chickadee, and Squirrel. Cat is lounging among the daffodils. Dog is sitting in the wading pool, deep in the cool water. Chickadee is eating fresh seed from the birdfeeder. Squirrel is munching on his very own corncob. Today is a perfect day in Bert's backyard. Until Bear comes along, that is. Bear crushes the daffodils, drinks the pool water, and happily gobbles up the birdseed and corncob.

Today was a perfect day for Cat, Dog, Chickadee, and Squirrel. Now, it's just a perfect day for Bear. Lane Smith uses perfect pacing and vibrant illustrations to emphasize the power of perspective in this hilarious picture book about the goings-on in Bert's backyard.

暖暖的太阳、凉凉的水、满满的鸟食……小猫、小狗和山雀在伯特家的院子里怡然自得地享受着这一切。突然闯入的一只大熊，打破了院子里的宁静。小猫、小狗和山雀仓皇逃进伯特的屋子里。完美的一天，似乎就此结束……

但院子里的那只大熊，吃饱喝足后正心满意足地躺在花床中打盹儿，享受着属于它的完美生活。
