Plus, a lot of the insects were deader because Lulu kept on spraying them with her spray. This made him mad. Then madder. Then madder than that. He growled a thunderous growl, and then he lumbered heavily down the forest path and stood on his two hind legs in front of Lulu.

In my story, bears are allowed to have favorite programs.) “So I’m going to scratch you to pieces with my claws.”
