Bears are tired. Sick and tired. Just when they are in the middle of something really good – like sleeping, snoozing, or napping – too many storybooks mean they have to stop what they are doing, that is, sleeping, and get up to be part of a story. Every story. Well, the bears have had enough. They are going on strike... but who could take their place?

Ava doesn’t like wearing her glasses in class or in front of her friends. That is, until her teacher – with a little help from some familiar fairy tale characters – convinces her that everyone’s story would be better if they would just wear their glasses.
