They travel through grass, a river, mud, a forest and a snowstorm before coming face to face with a bear in its cave . This meeting causes panic and the family run home, across all the obstacles, followed by the bear . Finally, the children lock the bear out of the house and all hide under the duvet saying "We're not going on a bear hunt again ." At the end of the book, the bear is pictured trudging disconsolately on a beach at night, the same beach that is shown on a sunny day as the frontispiece . Most of the illustrations were painted in watercolour . However, the six pictures of the children facing a new hazard are black and white drawings . </P>
