The Fears of Little Bear Virginia
The Fears of Little Bear Virginia
Virginia Woolf, affectionately known as Little Bear, is a Bernese Mountain Dog who lives a life full of fears. Her greatest fear is going outside, where noises terrify her and she worries she won’t be able to return home or might be stepped on by someone.
Her young owner, Marcela, a ten-year-old girl, tries to take her for walks, but Little Bear freezes in place and refuses to move.
Determined to help her beloved dog, Marcela begins a journey of patience and gentleness. With treats and soft words, she manages to get Little Bear to take one step after another, slowly overcoming her fear of the street. But the challenges don’t end there.
Little Bear is also afraid of climbing stairs, convinced she will fall from great heights. Marcela, with the same patience, climbs each step alongside her, showing her that she can do it without fear.
Another obstacle are the two Great Danes who live in the house—the dogs belonging to Marcela’s brother. Although they want to play with Little Bear, their size and energy intimidate her. With her brother’s help, Marcela manages to get all three dogs playing together in the garden, overcoming yet another fear.
Strangers are another source of anxiety for Little Bear. Whenever someone visits the house, she hides and cries. With care and tenderness, Marcela shows her that visitors are not a threat and that she can trust them.
Finally, the fear of rain keeps Little Bear indoors on stormy days, afraid to step outside into the yard. Marcela, always perseverant, accompanies her in the rain, teaching her that there is nothing to fear… and that it can even be fun to dance under the falling drops.
