| | Bamse |
 | | The name Bamse, comes from a Scandinavian word, meaning "bear" or "teddybear", but also "giant" (which is something of a misnomer, since Bamse is rather diminuitive in size compared to many of the other characters). |
 | | Bamse, the main character, is a brown bear who gains super strength by eating a batch of honey called dunderhonung ("thunder honey"), specially prepared for him by his grandmother. |
 | | Bamse is not only the strongest bear in the world, but also the kindest, often repeating his slogan "Nobody becomes better by being beaten". |
