The boy has been talking to Bear for as long as he can remember and asking some very tough questions about life, love, friendship, honesty, forgiveness, grief and loss, prejudice, and more. Bear's wise answers are always offered with compassion and enthusiasm. The friendship between these two is deep, tender, and fun. Bear's clear, common-sense philosophy of life is a welcome contrast to the complex world our children face today.
The book can be read in brief segments, two or three pages long, and the reader will find a thought-provoking life lesson each time. In the beautifully illustrated woods you will also meet Jay, Raccoon, Badger, Elder Moose, and others who add to the fun and adventure.
This is the perfect book for parents or grandparents to read with their young readers. Rich, meaningful, conversations are almost guaranteed! Have fun exploring together.
