Ballad of the Wild Bear

Follow Grizz as she wanders the trail full of risk to town in this children's picture book with musical CD. Will Grizz's fate be the same as her brother after the boar learned to like people's feasts? Can bears and people co-exist?

Learn what can happen when people adopt new habits to keep bears wild and people safe; when campsites are clean, animals safely tucked behind electric fences and garbage cans can't be pried.

Ballad of the Wild Bear is based on true-life events in Talkeetna and adapted from an old folk tune.This award winning children's book includes a music CD with original music and read-a-long versions for children. Received top media awards in 2005 from the Association of Partners of Public Lands and the National Association for Interpretation.

"Keeping them wild" - October 06, 2008
What a great way to teach kids (and their parents) about bear behavior. The book has wonderful illustrations and reads well. It is especially nice to point out the known Downtown Talkeetna buildings to my daughter when we study the book. I would recommend this book with CD to all young readers and parents of preschool kids.
