Come along with Bear as he roams his wilderness home, doing what a wild bear should.

This lush, poetic look at the real-life habits of a black bear cub in his first autumn shows his growing independence, the mother-cub bond, and the glorious wonders of nature, all wrapped in a warm bear hug of a picture book.

Bear loves his home, his wilderness home,

the warm amber fields and the beauty of home, as he steps out at sunset to forage and roam . . .

What do bears love to do? Eat! Bear has learned how to find tasty, natural foods from his mama, who can be spotted by readers on every gorgeous page, keeping a close eye on her little one.

This book is perfect as:

A bedtime, carpet-time, picnic-time read-loud Early environmental & stewardship education Part of the solution to keep bears safe and wild

In addition to the information woven through the story, there are bountiful facts in the back about the habits of American black bears, their life cycle, and how everyone can help these amazing mammals.
