Book Overview
The Bear is a novel written by Madeline Leslie and first published in 1864. It tells the story of a young girl named Edith, who lives with her family in the wilderness of Canada. One day, while out exploring, Edith comes across a bear cub and decides to take it home with her. She raises the cub, whom she names Bruno, as her own pet. However, as Bruno grows bigger and stronger, Edith realizes that he is not meant to be a pet and must be returned to the wild. The novel explores themes of love, friendship, and the relationship between humans and animals. It also offers a glimpse into life in the Canadian wilderness during the mid-19th century.
