 So far, Hermione Winters has been fine with the labels she has worn: champion cheerleading captain, best friend of Polly, girlfriend (albeit lukewarm) of Leo. All things she’s mostly proud to be known for, things lots of other people would choose if they could. With one sip from a drink, one pull of her hand away from a dance at cheer camp, Hermione has choices taken away from her. Now she’s not sure she wants to be known for anything at all. Part survival story and part whodunit, Exit, Pursued by a Bear is entirely about finding heroes to help restore your power when a villain tries to steal it, and choosing how your story goes after a turning point. A deft retelling of Shakespeare’s A Winter’s Tale. (Pennsylvania Young Reader’s Choice Award 2017-2018)
