"A philosophical, tender, and funny picture book that gracefully addresses the topic of rumour in a warm and cosy setting."

Little Finch can't wait to tell Bear the great news he heard in the treetops. But Bear is only cautiously hopeful. "Good, good, good. First of all, come in and sit down. I'll boil some water. We'll see if what you have to say goes through the tea strainer..." Bear then submits the famous news to the three sieves of truth, goodness, and usefulness: is the news as true as this water is hot? As sweet as this honey in the herbal tea? As useful as this cup from which he drinks? No? Then Bear would rather not hear it... And maybe Little Finch should forget about it too!
