Fraser Bear

A Cub's Life

By: Maggie de Vries
Illustrated by: Renne Benoit

A true-to-life nature story for young readers, from the multi-award-winning creators of Tale of a Great White Fish.

This moving, beautifully illustrated story follows a black bear cub’s life in the Pacific Northwest from his birth to his first salmon catch, uniting the cycles of bear and fish. A map and further information about bears and salmon are included.

The book is based on a top-selling plush toy named Fraser Bear, created by the Pacific Salmon Foundation and Rocky Mountaineer Vacations. This toy, holding a salmon in his mouth, is sold on RMV’s trains and through their souvenir catalogue, with sales benefitting the PSF. The book will become a must-have addition to all toy purchases.
