Thirteen-year-old Jason is on the cusp of manhood, striving to find his place at school π«π and at home π‘-especially after his mother has abandoned them and his father is left to deal with his own anger πͺ. When Jason and his father encounter a bear while out hunting π», they shoot and kill it, not realizing that they have left a cub without its mother. When Sasquot of the Penobscot Tribe⛰️, a part of the Bear Family, discovers what they have done, he decides that Jason needs a lesson in caring for God's creaturesππ». Thus begins a year that Jason will never forget as he begins to care and train the cub in order for it to surviveπ. As Jason forms a bond with the bear, he, in turn, learns valuable lessons for life.π€©
“Bears π»can move and climb π³surprisingly quickly; so, too, does this fast-paced and highly satisfying debut novel set in rural Maine, richly evokedπ€©. The Year of the Bear tells a coming-of-age story, its action seamlessly interwoven with moments of indigenous wisdom, personal discovery, and universal truthπ. If the immediate experience is cinematic, its aftereffect is inspirational. A compelling and uplifting work.”ππ
