It
was a beautiful June day in 1783. Since it was Sunday. No one
was working around the house. Little Sarah is happy when her parents
decide to visit nearby relatives. Her excitement is turned to anger
when she is told she must stay home. It is too far for Sarah to walk.
After her parents leave, Sarah quietly follows them. She becomes
distracted by some beautiful flowers and wanders into the woods while picking
a bouquet. She realizes she is lost and sits down and cries.
Suddenly she sees a giant animal crashing through the woods. What
kind of animal is it? Is is a dog or a bear? Will Sarah be
safe? To find out, read THE BEAR THAT HEARD CRYING based on a true
story of the authors ancestors in New Hampshire. |
