The Cinnamon Bear

The story of The Cinnamon Bear originally aired 88 years ago in 1937, and families have been enjoying this Portland holiday classic ever since!
The Cinnamon Bear follows the adventures of Judy and Jimmy Barton as they search for the Silver Star, leading them to a wondrous place called Maybeland. In Maybeland, Judy and Jimmy meet Paddy O’Cinnamon and the mischievous Quilt Dragon. Together, they travel to all corners of Maybeland, including the Wishing Woods, Looking Glass Valley, Root Beer Ocean, The Island of Obi, and even the North Pole!
On their epic journey, they encounter many fascinating characters, from giants, magicians, and crooning crocodiles to pirates, queens, and witches. Some of these characters are there to help… and some are hoping to keep the Silver Star for themselves!
