In the Valley of the Grizzly

"If you go down in this country, you won't get out." Ben worried as he looked out of the bush plane window into the northern wilderness below. This adventure story begins with his plane crashing deep in the Canadian wilderness. Trapped in the wilds, Ben's survival seems possible only with his Grandpa there to teach him the skills of their Tlingit ancestors. But Grandpas heart gives out, leaving Ben alone. To stay alive in this brutal land, Ben must teach himself the old ways. He also gets some unexpected help from a wild wolf to help outwit a threatening grizzly bear.
