Download or read book Touching Spirit Bear written by Ben Mikaelsen and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2010-04-20 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his Nautilus Award-winning classic Touching Spirit Bear, author Ben Mikaelson delivers a powerful coming-of-age story of a boy who must overcome the effects that violence has had on his life. After severely injuring Peter Driscal in an empty parking lot, mischief-maker Cole Matthews is in major trouble. But instead of jail time, Cole is given another option: attend Circle Justice, an alternative program that sends juvenile offenders to a remote Alaskan Island to focus on changing their ways. Desperate to avoid prison, Cole fakes humility and agrees to go. While there, Cole is mauled by a mysterious white bear and left for dead. Thoughts of his abusive parents, helpless Peter, and his own anger cause him to examine his actions and seek redemption—from the spirit bear that attacked him, from his victims, and, most importantly, from himself. Ben Mikaelsen paints a vivid picture of a juvenile offender, examining the roots of his anger without absolving him of responsibility for his actions, and questioning a society in which angry people make victims of their peers and communities. Touching Spirit Bear is a poignant testimonial to the power of a pain that can destroy, or lead to healing. A strong choice for independent reading, sharing in the classroom, homeschooling, and book groups.

Download or read book The Bear Doesn t Know written by Paul Schullery and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2021-09 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Bear Doesn’t Know, Paul Schullery—honored naturalist, storyteller, and former Yellowstone ranger—has given us a bear-lover’s book of wonders. It is rich in the joy, beauty, inspiration, and pure fun to be had during a life well lived in bear country. While exploring the cultural complications of an animal we have long both feared and adored, he chronicles the bumpy course of our coming to terms with the mysteries of bear ecology and behavior. Schullery brings to the matter of bears a long view—of our centuries-long and always-evolving perception of wild bears, of the scientific exploration of bear ecology and behavior, and of the sometimes bitter struggles to protect bear populations for the future. Featuring Schullery’s trademark gifts for historical inquiry and scientific translation, as well as for mixing humor with telling insight, Schullery enlivens The Bear Doesn’t Know with many of his own quirky tales of life in the wildlands of North America and in the obscure realms of bear folklore and literature. North America’s bears have become universally recognized symbols of wild landscapes and the struggles to preserve them. In this collection, Schullery illuminates and celebrates the bears and their world, making plain why they always have and always will matter so much to us.

Yeah, right. Dating has never been this scientist’s forte, but she’s about to learn that when it comes to bears, reality is always better than fantasy, and two is ALWAYS better than one! Kidnapped from their clan as cubs, tortured and subjected to experiments, Stone and Fury are barely surviving. The alpha werebears know nothing but pain, suffering, and darkness. When they are simultaneously gripped by a sensation neither can explain, not even the strongest tranquilizers can contain their rage. They must escape. No excuses, no regrets. Driven by something they don’t understand, they roar, claw and fight their way to freedom. As they escape the only home they’ve ever known, the bears run headlong into a girl with entrancing eyes and a scent that warms them to the core. A woman that they’ve never seen before, but who seems mysteriously familiar. Suddenly, it all makes sense - that surge must have been fate, and this woman is... their mate! These are two bears who do EVERYTHING together, and don’t take no for an answer. No matter what, they will take her, have her, and make her theirs. Forever.

No matter how much success Cinda had earned over the years as a investigating journalist, no matter how many prestigious awards she received for her writing, nothing could rid her of the feeling that she needed to be with her mate. But having discovered her mate at 17, she was certain she needed to wait till she matured to be Claimed, and she didn’t want to live a life chained to the kitchen and the bedroom. So by taking birth control, she kept the mate bond hiding from her mate for almost half a century. Now she can no longer deny the unhappiness she had experienced for years from keeping herself from her mate. Now she’ll need to seek him out and make right all the years of wrong. Jarvis was certain that at this point in his life, after 250 some years, that he would never meet his mate. Every day now he needed time to shift in order to keep her Bear under control and refrain from going completely Bear for the rest of his life, but when Cinda walks back into his life, he notices she smells different and come to realize that even though he’d known her since she was young, he is now realizing that she is his mate. There are so many emotions that course through him once he comes to that realization, and the years of hurt might never be completely forgotten or forgiven. As Cinda works to get to know Jarvis and allow the mate bond to flourish, they will both take the time to learn about each other, what they really are like to each other and also their dreams and deepest fears.

Download or read book Howard Elman s Farewell written by Ernest Hebert and published by University Press of New England. This book was released on 2014-09-02 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part Falstaff, part King Lear, but all American, Howard Elman was a fifty-something workingman when he burst onto the literary scene in The Dogs of March, the first novel of the Darby Chronicles. Now in this, its seventh installment, the Darby constable is an eighty-something widower who wants to do "a great thing" before he motors off into the sunset. Maybe Howard achieves this goal, but he manages it in strange, wonderful, and dangerous ways. On his quest he's aided, abetted, hindered, and befuddled by his middle-aged children, his hundred-year-old hermit friend Cooty Patterson, a voice in his head, and the person he loves most, his grandson, Birch Latour. At 24, Birch has returned to Darby with his friends to take over the stewardship of the Salmon Trust and to launch a video game, Darby Doomsday. At stake is the fate of Darby. And the world? Maybe. Howard Elman's Farewell begins as a coming of (old) age story, morphs into a murder mystery, expands into a family saga, and in the end might just follow Howard Elman into the spirit world. This is a novel for people who like New England fiction with humor, pathos, and just a touch of magical realism.
