The Bear
By Claire Cameron
240 pages
The Can't-Put-Down Adventure
When Anna's mother and father are attacked by a
black bear on the family camping trip, the 5-year-old girl and her baby sister
hide in a metal cooler. They emerge a day or two later—safe, but
alone in the wilderness. The two girls' struggle to survive and find a way home
make for heart-pounding action, but it's Anna's heroics—and her naïve,
imaginative perspective—that keep you glued to the page. A tender,
terrifying, poignant ride. Hang on.
