Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tish, the little black bear, is worried. Her Mama says that the summer's hot, dry winds can cause a forest fire if people who are camping around Lake Tahoe are careless. So, to help Tish get past her worries, Mama shows Tish how to properly extinguish a camp fire. This is the second book in the Tahoe Tish series. Visitors to Lake Tahoe may not know much about the black bears inhabiting the area. The Tahoe Tish stories are set during a black bear cub's first year. From emerging from the den with her Mama for the first time in the spring, through fattening up on salmon prior to winter hibernation, Tish learns how to survive the human-caused perils brought by the people who visit Lake Tahoe.
Download or read book Tahoe Tish Learns to Fish written by Jeanne Greenough Hill and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tahoe Tish stories (four in all) take place during a black bear cub's first year living and learning in the Lake Tahoe forest. From emerging from the den with her Mama in the spring, through returning to the den in winter for hibernation, Tish learns how to find food and survive the human-caused perils brought by the visitors to Lake Tahoe. As a Reno, Nevada resident, I have learned to share the Lake Tahoe environment with the bears who are indigenous to our region. The purpose of writing these books is to introduce young readers to what it's like to be black bear growing up in a wild area visited by thousands of people. Some of the actions the bears undertake in the four stories are exaggerated and do not happen in the wild (like using an aspen tree limb to pull Kokanee salmon out of a shallow stream in Tahoe Tish Learns to Fish n this story or carrying a pot of water to douse smoking coals in a forgotten camp fire in Tahoe Tish and the Forest Fire.) But who knows? Perhaps these behaviors have just not yet been documented!

In Tahoe Tish and the Garbgae Can Tish learns that people food smells, and probably tastes, really good...but her Mama explains why they should never eat it. Finally, in Tahoe Tish Learns to Fish her Mama shows her how to fatten up on Kokanee salmon to get ready for the next long hibernation.

Although Owen doesn't know if the deaths are murders or accidents, it is clear that the arsonist is deadly serious about his threat to light a monster fire that will incinerate a large part of Lake Tahoe. Before Owen can close in, the firestarter kidnaps Owen's girlfriend Street Casey. Owen and Spot have just hours if they are to save Street before she burns up in a fire so big, fire fighters call it a BLOWUP." --
