the first of a series by the four? Wirters known as erin hunter. I didnt like the worrier series but i thought id give this one a read and tbh i quite liked it.

In this book erin introduces us to three bears one polar, one black and a grizzly all of which have their own story to tell.

The quest begins tells of how the different types of bears live and of the hardships they come by but at the same time as teaching us about the characters they have also created a good story that doesnt get boring.

The only issue i had was that some of the writing seemed patronising to the reader but keep in mind it is a book for 9 and thus is written for that age group.

I intend on buying the second one next week the covers are lovely =) ( )

As a part of a deal with my niece, I agreed to read the first book of the Seekers series and she agreed to read Number the Stars. I didn't like the cover of the book, and was not thrilled to read about three bear cubs of different species going on some sort of quest. The book turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The author researched bear behavior and integrates this into the story. The way the bears view humans and human inventions is also somewhat clever. The book addresses the effects that climate change and human actions have on bear populations. The character development is better than I'd expected. It is probably more like a 3.5 star book, but I am rounding up because it was a pleasant surprise. It was good enough that I put the second book of the series on hold at the library. ( )

All of creation is inexplicably connected! The protagonists are bear cubs, each from a different species, seeing the world through innocent eyes and believing that everything is possible!!
