Description
A remarkable story about a girl and a bear raised as sister and brother in a remote logging camp during the Great Depression. When an orphaned baby bear is found, he becomes part of the family alongside a newborn daughter, Pearly, forming a special bond that grows stronger with time. As life in the camp can be perilous, a new supervisor arrives, pushing the workers to their breaking point and abusing the tame young bear. The situation escalates when Bruno is kidnapped and sold to an animal trader, prompting Pearly to embark on a hazardous journey through the forest to rescue her brother. Along the way, she discovers new worlds and a strength she never knew she possessed. This immersive novel is set against the backdrop of New Brunswick in 1934, where the Everlasting family forms a close-knit community with the woodsmen, who accept and embrace the tame young bear. With its harrowing quest to bring Bruno home, Pearly must navigate miles of ice and snow, eluding malevolent spirits and the cruelty of strange villagers.
