The Bear, the Piano and Little Bear's Concert, av David Lithfield, på estniska. Kas mäletad lugu karust, kes leidis metsast klaveri ja kellest sai tõeline staar? Tema kõige pöörasemadki unistused said teoks ja tal oli miljoneid austajaid üle maailma. Kuid nüüd, aastaid hiljem on tähesära tuhmunud ja karu suures metsas tagasi. Klaver on unustatud metsaserva. Ühel päeval leiab pilli tema väike tragi karupoeg, kes ei suuda kuidagi uskuda, et keegi ei taha enam tema isa kuulata. Tal tuleb idee, kuidas isa jälle klaveri taha meelitada... David Litchfeldi esimene autoriraamat, rahvusvaheline menuk „Karu ja klaver“, on tähelepanu äratanud ka Eestis. Oma töö eest pälvis 2020. aastal Paabeli Torni lastekirjanduse tõlkepreemia pildiraamatu kategoorias tõlkija Kadri Rahusaar. Tema vahendusel jõuab eesti lasteni kogu triloogia: peale nimetatu veel 2021. aastal ilmunud „Karu ja klaver, koer ja viiul“ ning viimane osa „Karu, klaver ja karupoja kontsert“. Kõik kolm raamatut jutustavad lastele unistustest ja nende teostamisest, kuid ka sellest, et au ja kuulsus võivad mööduda, kuid muusika jääb südamesse igaveseks.

Viiulimängija Hektor ja tema koer Hugo on parimad sõbrad. Ühel päeval otsustab juba mitte enam eriti noor Hektor tagasi tõmbuda: "Minu aeg on läbi. Kes tahab enam tulla vaatama vana viiulimängijat, kui saab kuulata maailmakuulsat pianistist karu?" Siis aga selgub, et ka Hugo oskab väga hästi viiulit mängida. Kuulus karu teeb talle ettepaneku oma bigbändiga liituda ja esineda suurtel lavadel tuhandetele kuulajatele - see on võimalus, millest Hektor oli alati unistanud. Kas Hektor suudab oma uhkuse maha suruda ja Hugo edu üle rõõmu tunda? Kas nende sõprus peab katsumustele vastu? David Litchfeldi esimene autoriraamat, rahvusvaheline menuk "Karu ja klaver", on tähelepanu äratanud ka Eestis.
