Just in case there are any of you who do not know, Ben Mikaelsen DOES have a bear that he raised from a cub (as I recall). I had the pleasure of listening to him a couple years ago at our state LMS conference. He shows slides of his bear at home. He would be great for an author visit at MS, but I bet he is really pricy. Make your day great. And thanks to Frederick Muller for previewing and publishing your recommendations on so many books for us.

Josh decides to rescue the cub. He brings it home and finds out that animal rescue people give such cubs to animal experimentation places. Sooooooo.. Josh runs away with the bear leaving a note saying he won't come back unles he can keep the cub and the state outlaws spring hunting of bears. The night he runs away a huge storm hits the mountains. The story hits the wires and the national media shows up. This starts a survival, adventure that only Mikaelsen can write. The reader follows the rescue team of the police, Josh's disfunctional family, and Josh's survival with his bear cub. This 265 page book is a GREAT survival adventure story. ***** Frederick Muller, Librarian Halsted Middle School Library Newton, NJ 07860 fmuller@tellurian.net My book comments are compiled at: http://www.halsted.org/br.htm -------------------------------------------------------------------- All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
