the Bear family living room on December 11

Tonight Mama and Leslie have gone to do their shopping. Papa and Benjamin opened tonight's card from Phurba, the Sloth Bear who lives in Nepal. Imagine their surprise when they saw that it wasn't a reply to the Bears' recent letter, but a birthday card for Benjamin... and his birthday was six months ago! They shouldn't really have been surprised, as Phurba does everything very slowly, and often rather late. Last year he sent the Bears a 1995 calendar for Christmas, and it arrived on St. Patrick's Day.
