About This Book

The narrator, a black bear, recounts early cubhood and family life on mountain slopes, describing landscape, hibernation, learning to climb and feed, playful interactions with siblings and mother, tumbling downhill, seasonal rhythms of snowmelt and streams, encounters with other wildlife, and increasing threats as men arrive with axes and rifles during gold-digging and logging; the narrative blends natural-history detail with personal episodes of growth, survival, parenthood, and the disruption of wild habitats by human activity.
