Wahb (meaning White Bear) is an orphaned Grizzly Bear who learns to respect his fears, fight for peace, and trust the healing powers of a stinky hot-spring. The story is aptly titled The Biography of a Grizzly because it is about the life of a Grizzly.
Seton writes with a folksy tone that will enlighten children to the gore and war that Grizzly Bears endure. I thought it was fun to learn (through Wahb's story) about their life span, their diet, their ability to survive gunshots and bear-traps. Beautifully written, the author captures each moment in a way that you almost feel as though you're in the story. If a bear had the ability to write his story, in short, a legacy, this would surely be one that "bears" repeating (phil chenevert and Wikipedia) (1 hr 35 min)

I have a BS in wildlife management and MS in field biology. This was entertaining and a good story from a well-known outdoor author and artist. Although Seton and others were chastised for sentimentental "Bambi" style writings, his commitment to nature and appreciation of the outdoors cannot be questioned.
Ha ha!
