Publisher's Synopsis
After discovering that he is being studied by a researcher, Ulysses finds a pair of binoculars and sets about doing some field research of his own. Read the story of a curious bear exploring the fauna of the Chugach national forest. Each pair of pages features the story of Ulysses' odyssey, a relevant factoid footnote by C Jared Castor, and a full-sized image to be colorized with pencils. The moral (to be aware of the world around you) and the plot (inquisitive observation) are worth sharing with readers of any age. This book is 34 pages long and designed for a wide range of skill levels. Emphasis on vocabulary building and the integration of fact and fiction render Ursa Major an enticing educational tool.
