Book Reviews of The Arkansaw Bear

Book Review: A play for children, this will strike anyone
Summary: 5 Stars

I've read and have directed this wonderful play by Aurand Harris. It's the classic tale of a little girl who is forced to accept her grandfather's death. However, she learns a valuable lesson when she runs into the woods and meets a dancing bear. The bear's life also seems to be running out of time, but he resolves to teach his dances to a "little bear" so that a part of him will live on. The little girl realizes the lesson and learns that her grandfather has left a little of himself with her. A great read and a wonderful way for children to learn about the immortality of man.
