Growl! starts out by mentioning Goldilocks and the Three Bears eating porridge, and aligns that with the fact that real bears are hungry all the time.
Chapters include: What Do Bears Eat? (Short answer: Their Diets differ.); How Do Bears Find Food? (Their big noses are a big help!); and When Are Baby Bears Born? (Short answer: mid-winter.). This is part of the Cartwheel Books Scholastic Hello Reader Science series, and is labeled for grades 1 & 2. A worthwhile quick read!
From Joan's list on bears with funny facts and friendship.
