Book Preview: "Mama Grizzly Bear"

"Mama Grizzly" from my "Wild & Wonderful" series, takes you into the wild with her cubs. Rhyming verses show her hunting for food, stealing from wolves, and teaching her cubs survival skills.

Great for home schooling or classroom projects.
Kid friendly fun. Interests boys and reluctant readers.

REVIEW

Mama Grizzly knows exactly what to teach her inquisitive cubs, and Margot Finke knows exactly how to show us.

Readers young and old will enjoy following Mama Grizzly through a year of her life. In rhyming verse and lifelike illustrations, we see Mama snug in her cave nursing her cubs. When they’re old enough, she guides them to find the food they will need to survive, like berries, honey and fish. And when winter blows cold and snowy, a long nap is in order. A gentle nudge reminds us that man has encroached on nature and is her only threat.

EXCERPT

The great grizzly mama is awesome and wild,
She'll tear you to bits if you threaten her child.
With her shaggy coat flying, she hunts down a meal,
Her sharp teeth and claws make it look like a steal.
