The Green Bear Stories Joe Knotts

A YOUNG BLACK bear cub grows rapidly into an adult without realizing it. The changes happen so fast he hardly has time to process the decisions he makes along the way or the forces shaping his life. Life moves quickly from being taught by Mother Bear how to survive, to doing tasks to please his mother, to venturing off to prove himself. Finally, he is officially ?kicked out? of his family when he tries to go back. What are the choices along the way? What or where is home? What is family? Sometimes what appears to be bad is good and what appears to be good is bad. Who is to sort that out? As a kid, what choices would you make? As a parent, what choices would your child make? Take time to listen as the kids answer questions. Told in easy to read, fast action episodes, some hilarious, some educational, some pure fantasy. Would the reader make similar or different choices? Great stories to read with your child! They may motivate you both into conversation. A "Read to your child" book. Ages: 5-10; though I read them to my parents when they were in their eighties and they loved the stories! Memories were stimulated and stories told!
