APPEALS TO: MANY

Bear cub loves his wilderness home.  He loves the hills, waterfalls, pines, breeze, seeds, stumps, streams, fish, berries and honey.  He is looking for his independence, but mother is keeping a close eye on him.  At night, who does bear cub look for?

Bear Loves His Home is wonderful for kids who want to know more about real-life habits of black bear cubs.  I liked the way it reads as a simple, lush, poetic story with mother bear hiding on every page.  There are also back pages with bountiful facts about the American black bears life cycle and how everyone can help these animals.
