Her honey cakes were the fluffiest in the forest, and her acorn tarts were so good they would make a chipmunk swoon. She had opened her own bakery, a small, cozy place with a bright red door. But there was a problem: no one ever came.Day after day, Beatrice would bake a fresh batch of treats, and day after day, they would sit on her counter, getting cold. She sat in her little bakery and worried that maybe her honey cakes weren’t as good as she thought, or her acorn tarts weren’t as delicious.One afternoon, a fox named Fenwick was walking by and saw Beatrice looking so sad. He poked his head in the door. "Hello, Beatrice! Are you feeling alright?"Beatrice sighed. "Oh, Fenwick. I've baked all day, but I've had no customers. I think my food isn't very good."Fenwick looked at her counter, which was piled high with wonderful-smelling treats. "What are you talking about? It smells amazing in here! But... where is your bakery?"Beatrice was confused. "Right here!" she said, gesturing around.Fenwick laughed. "No, no, I mean... where is the sign? You're tucked away behind the big willow tree and down a winding path. No one knows you're here! They can't smell your wonderful cakes from the main trail."Beatrice had been so focused on baking that she hadn't thought about how to tell people where to go. Fenwick, being a helpful fox, said he would help. He found a big, flat piece of wood and painted a sign in big, friendly letters: BEATRICE'S BIG BAKERY! FRESH TREATS! They nailed it to the big willow tree, with an arrow pointing toward Beatrice's cozy shop. Fenwick also told all his friends and family on the main trail about the amazing badger baker.The next day, Beatrice was busy from dawn until dusk. Animals of all shapes and sizes lined up outside her door, from tiny field mice to big grizzly bears. She baked and baked, laughing all the while. She realized her food wasn't the problem; she just needed a little help from a good friend to get the word out.
