Mr. Bear is a friendly, middle-aged bear who wears sweater vests and ties, even at home. He lives with his wife and his two sons, Fozzie and Freddie. He appears in several Muppet Kids books.

Mr. Bear teaches Fozzie cooperation in The Wonderful Wagon by telling him a parable about carpenters who fight a giant.

In Fozzie Bear, Star Helper, Fozzie asks, "What happens if I try really hard to be responsible, and I still forget?" Mr. Bear answers, "I guess you'll just have to work even harder at it."

On the other hand, when Fozzie has an important swim team tryout in Fozzie's Last Lap, Mr. Bear doesn't even show up.
