Up in the land of Care-a-Lot, a group of bears and their cousins look down on the world below. If they spot a kid in trouble they send down a squad to guide them in the ways of love and caring. Of course things aren’t always as easy as that, with enemies like Professor Coldheart and the dark wizard No Heart trying to rid the world of feelings. The bears then turn to their magical Care Bear Stare to save the day.
